In every kitchen of every home I've ever lived in, counter space has been a premium. A tablet affixed to the wall is a lot more practical for 1/20th the cost. But I suppose if you can afford this gadget, you are probably not wanting for kitchen counter space.

Yeah I didn't find out the cost of this thing until sometime after I'd commented.

I guess if the tablet used leap motion like sensors for gestures that might work otherwise you'd have the issue of messy hands (common state while cooking).

I mean if all you want to do is scroll through recipes in a browser, you could get away with one of those ridiculously cheap chinese tablets that cost like $30.

Or a first gen nexus 7, they're piss cheap now too.

That and the 1500 EUR price. Can you imagine spending 2-3 large, high quality TVs worth of money and leaving it on the counter?

Don't know how practical it is but a cool extension would be to mount it on a movable mount on the ceiling and have it pop up on any surface you like.

And the projector is hitting the stove and counter, and highlighting where to put which ingredients when, and it's a Tasty video...
