As Discussed at Lunch

This is completley pointless, but you will want one.

So this is part of a viral campaign for Epson Projectors, but it’s still fraking cool!!

Perhaps not something we should be seriousley endorsing since many of our incomes are from cable tv! But a really intersting article from the Ny Times. I would love to be free of the $110+ monthly cable bill (ok, $50 of that is internet) but this sounds a little rough round the edges still. What the article doesn’t point out is that you can still have over the air free network TV and even HD with an antenna. If you even have a cable drop in your home you can get free network TV though that, just not HD. You can then still use a Tivo. So you don’t have to go to Boxee or Hulu for 30 Rock, SNL  etc

iTunes season passes for HBO and Showtime series are still priced such, that if you had basic cable already it wouldn’t be any cheaper to get them then to pay for the two months or whatever of premium channels.

Anyway… intersting article.
