Completely stupid - I like it [+] |

I pictured an umbrella with a voice thingy telling the user things like, "Oh, yech! I hate the rain.", "Hey, I'm getting all wet over here!", or "I'm melting, I'm melting. Please make it stop.",or "Hey little rain drop, Iknow you had a long trip. You just rest on my top for awhile, be cool, little dude." |

I guess your idea is more useful. Could we have it do both? |

[ntss] The umbrella in the description is from the economy range. The "Rainmaster" incorporates all the features you mention, and a few more... |
|
| |
maybe you could also have it download the local forecast and blink a little red light so you don't forget it when you leave the house... |
|
| |
[rascal] Ah, so it's the "Rainmaster" you'd be wanting then... |
|

Proximity sensors alert you that you're about to bump into someone else's umbrella. |

Funnily enough, London has umbrella-sensitive rain. Simply leave your umbrella at home and it rains. |

these brollies just close down on your head without warning? |

The light thing i was talking about is apparently in the works already. It looks pretty cool. |
