Feb 10th 2009 12:51PM Hey, I want to hear more about that border guard story! Which country?
And most people in the world don't think in Fahrenheit , they think in Celsius. You guys should add conversions for them in your posts so we don't have to.
Gadling Gear: Vibram Five Fingers {Gadling}
Aug 24th 2008 6:52AM I bought one, and used it as my sole shoe for 5 days (and I did alot of pavement walking for those 5 days). After 5 days, i still hadn't adjusted enough and it got painful & exhausting after a while. Oh my god I got a lot of attention although. I don't understand how you can stand to wear them for extended period's of walking. Or did it take more than a week for them to be as comfortable as normal shoes.
I've also heard that the black neoprene ones are good for more wintery or colder climates. You'd have to bring 2 pairs for all climates although, because they're way too hot in any summer weather.

Feb 23rd 2008 5:18PM Wouldn't this be defeated with IR filters? Or just filtering the IR light in the video stream. I remember seeing something similar with red lasers projected against a surveillance cam. They just filtered the red light out of the image and you could see everything clearly again.
Messing with the auto-exposure is really smart although. Although that too is fixed with IR filters.
