Here's one from the Wall Street Journal:

There will be a prize of $20 million for whoever is first to decode the entire DNA of a hundred people within the space of a few weeks.

Anybody care to take a crack at this? Mr Rutan? Mr Carmack? Anyone?

Thanks Manofsan. As they said in the article - it will be a race to see who secures this enormous marketspace. The $20M is a drop in the ocean in a trillion dollar market. I had no idea that the X-prize foundation had Larry Page and Craig Venter on their board. Astonishing.
