Anyone tried UWink yet?

Heard that UWink on Castro Street, Mountain View is now open, and is fun? Anyone tried it yet?

I have no idea what it is, but the stock price at 57 cents cries out 'Stay Away!'

Sounds like a gimmick...

"uWink Bistros have a touchscreen video terminal at each table. Patrons complete their order through the video screen without the assistance of wait staff, which is then transmitted to the kitchen. The interactive kiosks allow patrons to view the ingredients and nutritional information for each entree, and supports customization in both food and drink orders."

"Mountain View, California, opened on October 25, 2007, uWink announced it had acquired a currently operating restaurant, and planned to convert the approximately 7,000 square foot location to the uWink concept and open to the public by early 2008. The restaurant, formerly the California Roadhouse, is located at 401 Castro Street."

Nolan K. Bushnell of Chuck E. Cheese, ByVideo and Topo the robot by Androbot infamy is behind this penny stock company.
Enough said.
