Great for spies and coffee shops!
i don’t think i have ever seen something so pointless. working off the (poor, limited) description above, the sofa seems to be just a giant USB stick? how is that any better than actually just having a USB stick, a drive-enabled mobile phone, or, heaven forbid, a computer? apart from the fact that it can’t be moved, is a lot more expensive than any of the above, looks uncomfortable and has disc space that looks poor now and will seem negligable in a couple of years. must set some sort of benchmark for badly thought out design ideas.
