See those people? As much as NEC would like to think so, that's not you. If it were you'd be ass-deep in nag about your inattentive dismissal of "quality time" while suffering dire warnings about barefoot-borne diseases. Or maybe that's just us. Regardless, NEC hopes that the launch of its 4-component
Lui (Life with Ubiquitous Integration) system -- ¥379,890/$3,705 Blu-ray packing PC server (Lui SX), ¥89,880/$877 10.6-inch laptop (Lui RN), ¥49,980/$487 4.1-inch handheld (Lui RP), and ¥300,000/$2,926 Desktop (Valuestar R Lui) -- will somehow create harmony in your household. Besides the marketing hype, we're really just talking about Windows Home Premium SP1 here and a bunch of DTCP-IP DRM and DLNA compliant devices. In fact, the so called "laptop" and handheld units lack any traditional OS at all -- they can only be used to receive streaming content off your home server. Even then, some streaming is restricted inside and outside the home thanks to the DRM lockdown. Do we really need one or even two more devices in the home just for media?
Update: Regardless of what you may have read elsewhere, there is no WiMAX here. That's not even a standard available in Japan.

Thats what she says
I think it is good to own two more devices at home as I think it is necessary for us to use when you have two more person in your familiy. THis machine seems good. Maybe it is fit to for us to buy laptophttp://www.madeinchina like this.
the link formate really bad and make mistake
Sounds like you tried to spam but failed.
Mega fale?
I don't think the link was the only mistake you made.
I'd be ass-deep in something alright.
i see what you did there
The laptop only receives streaming media? Really? Really really?
Looks like the guy got caught looking at porn on his laptop, but the wife looks kinda...intrigued...
Is he even looking at the laptop?
The both seem to be more interested in Mr. Tstudne's grass cutting techniques than the media streamers.
Haha, it's just not a real home without a server on the coffee table eh?
Say Hellui to an interior designer. Please.
that laptop is hot!!!!
i've been looking at the sony x505 on ebay. its too bad they dont make laptops like that anymore.... till now with NEC :)
I think maybe they should be worried about their sanity.
I mean, the TV is in the middle of the room and facing AWAY from the sofa.
WTF?!
Money would be better spent on shoes, and a woman with a head.
damn iphone screen.....
Does that picture even make any sense?
The guy's entertainment set is facing the outside door, and there is no couch or anything even facing it. Where exactly do the people sit while watching that, outside?
There is a place to sit BESIDE the set, but that doesn't help to actually watch the thing, nor would it help when trying to control the players that are facing the outside as well.
That living room setup is terrible.

What? You mean you WATCH your 2000 dollar TV? I thought they were just status symbols to show off to guests...
the wife looks like she is going to stab her husband with the handheld...
forget the NEC junk, I'd be driving her face into that couch
