#2Fascinating - I had no idea such a machine existed. Here is a video of one in action - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k49ncf60zN8#t=16

#3This is so pointless. People have positive associations with handwritten letters because of the content that goes with it. If marketeers start using handwritten letters they will just ruin that association.

It's not exactly the same, but pen-wielding robots existed for a long time(earliest examples are almost 200 years old!) - US presidents have been using them for a long time to sign official documents:

Now you say it, reminds me of the 'Automaton' featured in Hugo.

#6This machine seems a standard automation for pre-email era.
Most of the e-mails sent by me now and in the past years at my work in HR, have been automated by me while retaining a good amount of "personalization" for most of the non-priority e-mail replies which helped me highly for saving time for my start-ups. You will be surprised at the amount of "personalized looking" e-mails received that are actually automated.

But in the few years before the association is ruined, those marketers that successfully fool people into reading their junk mail will make money.

#8I think I'll just rip open the letter rather than analyzing the writing. Too many details to look at.

All my letters are either from a robot or my Nan.

Or just piss off a lot of people for wasting their time.
Everybody assumes if i see your advert I'm going to buy your product regardless how i run into it that's just plain not true.
It may actually have the opposite effect I'll remember it for wasting my time and avoid that annoying company that is spending way too much on advertizing instead of doing something useful with it.
