If there's a normal, unpretentious home theater projector (http://blog.scifi.com/tech/archives/2006/07/05/marantz_bows_wo.html) out there in the universe, this is the projector it's farthest from. Star Wars fans will be knocking each other over to get to Nikko's R2-D2 DVD projector, which shoots video out of its eye onto a separate screen (it would have been perfect if it used the hologram-projector port, though). The resolution is only 800 x 600 pixels (south of high-def), but speakers are built in, and so is a DVD player as well as an iPod dock. And it wouldn't be R2 if he didn't move - you can make him follow you anywhere.
Say, have we mentioned the remote control? A replica of the Millenium Falcon - it's a riot in its own right. The controls pop out of the engines. too sweet. For that extra Jedi atmosphere, be sure to pick up a Darth Vader popcorn machine (http://blog.scifi.com/tech/archives/2006/02/02/snacking_turns.html). The R2-D2 projector is due in stores as early as the spring for a little more than 2 Gs. - Peter Pachal
