Disappearing projection screen wins award

Article link: Disappearing projection screen wins award

This article is about a flatscreen TV that disappears into its base with the push of a button. There's also a video of the TV working.

I'm not entirely sure if I like this or not. On one hand, it looks really cool and works better than the other models (says the article), but on the other, it looks like a futuristic coffee table. Unless they knew it was a TV, other people could mistakenly place something there, and the TV could break. Also, assuming that the TV was placed against a wall, the empty space behind the TV when the screen is up would look extremely empty while the screen is down.
