R2D2-Shaped DVD and Videogame Projector 147
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."

I think the title says it all.
Carry on, this is not the post you are looking for.

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

I'd rather guess, even incorrectly, than have a C3P0 in my room.
I wouldn't have a moment's peace.

It will also do the Kessel run in less than twelve parsecs.

Well, I left home just a week before,
And I'd never ever been a Jedi before,
But Obi-Wan, he set me straight a course,
And said "Go to Yoda and he'll teach you the Force!"

The big problem with this design came years later. You see, the TV wasn't real particular which metal clicking sound it took its' orders from and one night when I was sneaking in after curfew I took some change out of my pocket and put it beside the TV.
I'll bet you can guess what happened next. The TV came on and it was loud enough to wake up everyone in the house.

Yeah, forget these guys! I'm gonna build my own R2D2, with blackjack and hookers. In fact, forget the robot. Ah, screw the whole thing.
