Re: Selling an idea...

My poking around the internets has indicated that you pretty much need a working prototype of the "product" before it can be patented. Or, at the very least, OP will need detailed designs/specifications.
Also, OP mentioned that his product is adapting an existing technology for a different purpose. As another poster has pointed out, this will may make patenting his product impossible. Although we are given no specifics about the idea so who's to say for sure?

The key is the design specs... however, I agree with you that the patent process is complicated and a lawyer familar with the process is absolutely essential.
As for the product, if you look at the patent I posted... you will see that it is basically for a pen (or more specifically, a specific way for a pen to work) [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
