NTT DoCoMo is demonstrating an Internet-controlled fragrance generator in a Tokyo gadget store. The device has 36 smells, including sandalwood and basil. The company is showing the prototype as a trial balloon. If they get enormous interest, which they won't,  they plan to develop a consumer version.

Yeh we like to think we are a friendly family on esato...
My original post was from 2004 so they must have had a lot of interest in this to put this into production,i assumed it was a a one of prototype,usually products like this appear and dissapear quiet quickly.
