It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Yeah. Went to see a picture of this "unveiled" product. This is a non-story.

Why, though? I can't imagine that in these economic times, Kawasaki felt like their money and resources should be going towards something nobody asked for.

This is what Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk will hunt poor people on, they specifically requested it.
