poorly written, for simple products only
I tend to invent larger products that solve complex problems which means a fair investment and lot of research occurs before getting close to market. This guy focuses exclusively on very simple products that can be produced by the average high school drop out and which can have an initial production run for under $500. My view is that if it is that easy to solve then it is too easy to copy and present's no competitive barriers to others. It is also unlikely to ever produce a product that has a meaningful impact. May be helpful for some but complete waste for me.
