I'm assuming it's designed for public spaces, such as train stations and airports. More likely, it's an exercise in design and won't be built in any practical quantities.

I don't mean this to be sexist, but on the topic of why they have girls showing off electronics. Most girls seem innately able to stand in front of something in an introductory fashion and still look natural. Guys, on the other hand, always stand there a totally unnatural straight armed gesture that looks like he is both blatantly posing and it also unfairly makes him appear like a dufus.
Just an observation from most pictures or displays I've seen.

I'm in favor of better booth babes.
That's clearly a "cost is no object" exercise in what CAN be done. However, if it can be done now, it might be done cost effectively some day. If it arrived rolled up in a tube and could then be applied to your wall with adhesive or something...

Me, I'm thinking there's no way that would ever go into production. How would you get it into a house? You'd have to build the house around it. Also, imagine getting it delivered... I heard from one of our Cisco contacts that Cisco purchased one of those "largest plasma" from CES last year (two years ago???) The thought was, they would ship it around whenever Chambers spoke for the wow "factor" But it was such a pain to ship-n-mount such a heavy/fragile equipment that they scratched the whole plan!

How would you fit a 150" plasma (or a 108" LCD for that matter") in your house? good luck getting that downstairs into a basement theater!

Reminds me of the Goofy how to setup your home theater short that played before National Treasure... You can get a small clip of it here (click on the picture to see the 20s clip). The hole thing was hilarious! You should see how they get the giant tv into the house
