The smart projector that fits in any light socket

Mr.Sommer-Hansen

Totally on the wish list  :D

 

"Beam can turn any flat surface into a big screen. 

You can play games, watch movies or share content from your smartphone or tablet. 
Beam is easy to set up and control with the Apple or Android app."

IMO Kickstarters shouldn't be allowed in this section until units are released, how many "amazing" kickstarter things have been posted here and never heard of again :P

Erm...article? Opinion?

when people post news they edit it later

 

oh and this thing is stupid

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.1 Corinthians 13:4

When creating, not after creating. And there's no confirmation OP has any intention of updating his post.

 

Well he's updated it... still not particularly informative.

The ID of this projector is really quite... Well, I wouldn't call it good. It's neat that you can just put it into a lamp socket and be done with it. But it's not elegant at all to have a cable with a socket and this big round thing on a table. May it be in the living room, bed room or what not.

 

That is a killer for me.

Because then you wouldn't be able to hook it into a lamp. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
