iTableous is a PC and HDTV hidden away inside a giant white iPhone 4 case. Sounds simple, until you take a look at the work that has been put into making this table. It has been crafted out of the finest materials and painstakingly perfected over the last few months. The table belongs to its creator Benjamin Bachmeier.
The iTableous is not just a table of course, it has a Full HD TV with DVB-T freeview reception, integrated DVD player, dual boots Windows 7 and OSX, HD Camera, microphone and an iPhone dock connection. Unfortunately there is no touch screen, it has to be operated via a mouse and keyboard.
The whole project just floats my boat; I would really love something like this in my family room. It is so unique and well made! Take a look for yourself, there is a video after the break!

Patent infringement lawsuit in 3.. 2... 1... :)
It's only patent infringement if he is trying to sell it. This looks like just a personal project, which is a lot harder to nail for infringement.
Has anyone noticed that the OS shown in the photo is from a playstation?
It probably just had input from a playstation... After all.. There's an HD tv in that thing. It was running Mac OS X too.. It was just hooked up to a hackintosh
I'm assuming there is just a PS3 running on it at the time of the photo because it doesn't look like it, it is the Xmedia bar from the PS3.
Solid German work, great idea. This little country is awsome !!
The guy taking the video is a stalker-like heavy breather. LOL!
