R2D2 Projection Unit: Totally Geeky or Geek Chic?

Mar 3 2008 - 4:00pm

"Excuse me, but can you please pass me the Millenium Falcon remote [1]? I need a Mountain Dew break."
I know my boyfriend has been trying to convince me that we need a projector for our apartment — and finding the wall space is another situation all together — but I haven't been on board . . . until now.

This R2D2 projection unit [2], that caught my eye on Geek Alerts [3], plays your DVDs and CDs, sports a hidden docking station for your iPod [4], has an integrated speaker system, AV in/out ports, and even a micro card reader. Oh, and don't forget — it comes with that Millennium Falcon Remote we saw at CES [5]! Even though it's pushing a $4,200 price tag, and is only half the size of the real R2, it certainly would make a statement in someone's geeky digs. I'm sure Lucas has a better model up at his ranch. Sigh.
