Gyro Bowl was unique and interesting because it applied the "sippy cup" idea to a bowl. This product applies the "sippy cup" idea to ... a cup. Not quite as unique.

Making it look and drink more like a regular cup certainly helps broaden the market beyond toddlers, but the category in general is already quite crowded.
