A question from the other post: What is some one was to create an open-source version of the app and release the code. There is nothing to stop the parents from acquiring a developers licence and running the app on there hardware. Is there any chance of a project of this nature getting shutdown?
Also what is the patent in dispute?
If it is a UI issue, it would be interesting to come up with an alternate UX/UI interface.

I have been burned by so many routers in the past few years. It is amazing how terrible the factory firmware is on these machines. For most of them I have had to install DD-WRT just to get them working. Thank the flying spaghetti monster for open source.
But what I dont understand is why hardware manufactures go out of there way to prevent external software from being installed.
I never try to kill my self at Hackathons. Go to sleep when you are tired and dont eat crap. At some point you are bound to get only diminishing returns, you should know this by now if you are all grown up.
Like programming good design takes practice. Just because you read a book is not going to make you a great designer. The question is are you willing to stop developing and put aside the time to design well or pay someone to do it for you.
I personally work a lot with 3d animation. We use plugins and pre-made elements to create our animations. Because we are using 3rd party tools to create our final product, does this make us "middle-men (and women), glorified translators", Or is it only real if we where to make our tools form scratch.
