Oh, wow. I’m not at all a gadget gal, but this is too cool. And begs the question: If you could choose anything, what scene would you want in there most often? I think a good Venetian streetscape would get heavy rotation at my house.

Back to the future 2 is coming true! I’m pretty sure I saw something in that movie like this.
It was set in 2015 after all. Only another 5 years.

I can see great demand for these in prison and city apartments without views. Or from those with disabiliites.
