Just brilliant. Until the Olympicubes (.com) are released, which it seems they never will be, this is the closest we're all going to get to anything larger than a Professor Rubik (5x5x5), besides the Gabbasoft software, which I personally just cannot get accustomed to.
I bet these things are going to come at quite a cost, so it would be nice if somehow the software could be updated as little tweaks to make the cubes more usable are discovered over time.
But yeat, it does exist, just in prototype form. People who have been lucky enough to test them out say they turn like an absolutely dream. The videos are at the bottom of the page.

Now excuse me while I go change my pants.

http://www.olympicubes.com/
Goes to a page by "Webadvertisingcorp"
And when I do a google search for "Olympicubes" I get a bunch of forum posts...
When I do an image search to see this saught after puzzle, even in prototype form... I can't find a blasted thing?
Does this "Olympicube" even exist?

My apoligies, it's just http://www.olympicube.com/ (with no 's' at the end of 'cube').

Yuck, sorry for all the spelling errs in my last comment, I typed it from my phone and it was quite arduous.
