This has tons of potential. How is the progress?? How about displaying movies from the projector? How will you market it and mass produce it?

yes, the device is a great idea. but the self-building part of mistry’s website says coming soon since more than a year now and mistry doesn’t answer to emails at all. the battery of the device runs for three hours. this isn’t gonna come any time too soon i’m afraid.
