Inizialmente pensavo fosse un pesce d’aprile fatto in ritardo, poi mi son reso conto che il tutto è tangibile e realistico.

People of Lava ha creato la prima televisione, chiamata Scandinavia, con Android installato sopra.

Questa soluzione vi permetterà di godere di un TV da 42″ a 55″ con a bordo il proprio sistema Android. Magari non propriamente tascabile, ma vuoi mettere guardare Google Maps su uno schermo da 55 pollici?

E chi se lo vuol perdere…

I prezzi ventilati vanno dai 2.000 € ai 2.500 € che sono nella media del mercato per una TV con tecnologia LED.

Dopo lo stacco le specifiche e una photogallery.

Apps and Open Source

The Scandinavia Window to the World from People of Lava is based on Google’s operating-system Android(TM). Read more here http://www.android.com. This is a small, efficient, fast, power-saving operating-system. And it´s “Open Source”, which means that 1000’s and 1000’s enthusiastic skilled developers around the world will make “apps” (applications) for the TV. Apps that you can download and install! And so will we – So expect a continuous flow of new cool apps to give you even more to view through your window! Remember – this is Open Source – so although we will provide Apps, they don’t all have to come from us!

Your window

Finally, it´s all about you. Your time, your content, your friends.
Your window to the world.
Welcome!
