Sometimes uses aren't even evident to the manufacturer

People get excited about new and cheaper ways to do old stuff, but sometimes they have no clue what the true potential of their product is.

Take the video ipod for instance. Great little product, it can be used to play music, look at video. But is Steve Jobs aware of the fact that it may become the best way ever to search for really, REALLY big primes? Hard drive manufacturers were stunned when the first ipod showed up with a 5GB hard drive. Maybe in about 6 months, it will be Steve Jobs turn to be stunned when his product starts cranking out 100,000+ digit primes.
