the link does not go to a toshiba interview or a media outlet that scrutinies its sources..
the story seems to be from a blog style media source (
http://caeconomics.wordpress.com/) where anyone can submit stories. (who is John Vandivier)
and the link in the story brings you too yet another blogger/journalist. (qz.com)
no actual references / interviews from toshiba themselves making a device. just a toshiba RESEARCH PAPER.
i call this chinese whispers, where the initial facts get distorted with every person that then passes the information forward.
