R2D2-Shaped DVD and Videogame Projector

Posted by timothy on from the pinch-me-carrie-fisher-pinch-me dept.

Rikardon writes "Nikko Home Electronics has created a DVD projector that looks and moves like R2D2 — with a remote control shaped like the Millenium Falcon. The specs aren't bad: a claimed projection area of up to 6.6m; built-in DVD and CD players; analog and digital video and audio ports; various memory card orifices, and an internal iPod dock. Favorite feature: tilt the legs to adjust the projection height, up to and including projection on the ceiling. No word on whether it projects holograms."

    "pi pi ri pi ri pi pi pi ri" translates to "please insert memory stick into my orifice".

    What, no hologram projections?

    I think I'll pass.

    You're overreacting.
    It only uses Flash, not Silverlight.
