Exciting patents - Feng Shui detector

So I'm sitting here in a hotel in Florence, SC...It smells baaad :(
At least there's wireless internet :) But enough about me here's a great new patent - really useful.
United States Patent Application 20060084449 Kind Code A1 He; Fan ; et al. April 20, 2006 Method and apparatus for evaluating locations according to Feng Shui principles

Abstract A communication device (112) includes a communications receiver (120), an AM/FM receiver (124), a three-dimensional Hall-effect sensor (226), a digital camera (128), and a GPS receiver (130), which each have multiple uses. In addition to their usual functions, the various capabilities of the respective elements (112, 120, 124, 226, 128, 130) can be used to provide data for evaluating a location in accordance with the principles of Feng Shui.
