You don't have to drive to Staples. Apparently, they will deliver, much like their existing print services.

They are using a 3D printer that uses glued paper, rather than plastic. I don't know if Shapeway offers that. It'll be interesting to see what the pricing is, and what you can do with layered paper vs. plastic.

The important thing isn't whether you can get stuff 3D printed at Staples. The important thing is that we're nearing an inflection point for 3D printing the way mobile was when the iphone came out in 2007. Meaning, if you missed the elevator ride up with the smart phone, there's another ride coming around the corner.

We don't currently offer the Mcor iris line at Shapeways. It actually just launched so I'm not sure if anyone does yet.

Our CEO was just at Euromold so he may have some insight as to whether or not we should look into the paper-based tech.
