It's a REAL device, but I guess didn't catch on. You enter all kinds of personal information and also information on what type of person you are looking for as a romantic interest. When you are in the vicinity of someone else who has a Yenta - and either you match their programmed desires or vice-versa, the device alerts you and displays the other person's information for you.

I thought that was the purpose of brightkite?
