Title: R2-D2 Video Projector, Wireless Webcam, and Lightsaber VoIP Phone!
Post by: Thorin on September 03, 2008, 09:10:03 AM
Yes, that's right, a moving video projector in a R2-D2 case (with all kinds of hookups, built-in audio, and the ability to project onto the ceiling!) with a Millennium Falcon remote control.

And then a moving wireless webcam in a small R2-D2 case, with a lightsaber remote control that's also a VoIP phone!

That's entirely possible.  It was first announced at CES in 2007, I think.  And I didn't bother searching old posts to see if it had already been posted...

Very nice demo vid.

In fact, the amazingly lengthy collection of features, many of which are not just unexpected but probably unnecessary, reminded me of that SNL "iPhone" parody commercial (I think it was SNL; mighta been MadTV -- it coulda even been Conan or Letterman now that I think of it...)
