	This looks very interesting. Currently I'm using NeoMouse in its air mode, but Leap Motion seems to be much better and more advanced. I think Leap Motion could be especially natural and useful in sculpting mode.

	I have few ideas I could try to implement. For example, I can imagine sculpting with one hand and controlling brush parameters (size, texture angle, etc.) with another. From what I saw on videos this seems to be technically possible. I can test in Linux and Windows 7.

I then will select the 10 'winners', ask them for the shipping details and forward it to Leap Motion. They already seed units now btw, before the official launch end of July.
