Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - When Cameron, a typical college student, receives a package containing his new Kora, he is excited. The son of the CEO of Bix Cellular, Cameron often tests the newest prototypes for his father's company. Bix Cellular's newest model, Kora, is an advanced prototype. Sleek, shiny, sexy, and extremely smart. Kora is the first smartphone to incorporate artificial intelligence. Cameron is sure that if this new phone passes testing, it could wipe out the competition. Kora turns out to be everything she is designed to be! And Cameron has never been more organized. As Kora continues to learn about Cameron, she organizes his days and plans his meals. She reminds him of his appointments. Kora helps in all aspects of Cameron's life. She can even control the microwave or the vacuum cleaner, anything with a computer.

Signed by both Bix and Bill Challis, Whiteman orchestra MD and one of Beiderbecke's greatest supporters in his very last, desperate years. Bix's signature, due to his short life and ragged lifestyle, is a rare thing.
