One step closer to teleporters

Screw teleporters, I want replicators

Is there much difference between the two logistically? Seems like the replicator is just the second half of a transporter.

Well there's an episode in ds9 where a replicator is modified into a teleporter, so in the star trek universe they're very similar. Replicators reconstitute matter from waste material, and seems to me to be far more likely in the realm of scientific possibility.
