Commercial Gigapan is a fancy add-on to a digital camera that allows take a series of photos that can be stitched into a high-resolution panorama. I applied to be part of the beta program, bu haven't heard yet whether I've been accepted into it. Will I have the privilege of paying $279 for a prototype?

Update: I just got an email stating that the program had received an overwhelming number of applications and that everyone who had applied will hear of his status in the next few weeks.
