At this price, I wouldn't touch it with a ten-foot barge pole until local API is a reality.

If their servers shutdown and it becomes abandonware you want to be sure it's still functional when you're spending a little more than "toy money".

Agreed it is a solid risk. I want to spend some time with wireshark to see if I can get something of my own going until an official local api is released.

I take it the device has WiFi? It would be interesting to see what kind of controller hardware is inside.

> $2,850

Whoa. And they advertise putting this in your house for your family? You could buy multiple really nice TVs for that kind of money.

Not bad for an "art piece". We have plenty of art in the house and office that costs more than this, and they don't _do_ anything.

Hey, to each their own. I'd argue a decent painting does more than this product on an emotional level, though.

Plus it will keep it's value much much longer (not just $ value)

[smoldesu]

Jesus, no kidding. Only a two year warranty, too? For $3,000 USD you might think you'd get a little more for your money...

I was scrolling and thought I want one... now I don't :D

Sounds like a sweet corporate office buy at that price unfortunately. Cool tech art though!
