Unfinished, Video Calling
A new gadget for kids is making its debut: the Amazon Glow. This product combines with games by projecting graphics onto a screen that responds to touch. The device was originally available only by invitation, but Amazon rolled it out to the general public in late March. However, six months after it was released, the company decided to discontinue the product.
Unlike other calling gadgets, Amazon Glow is designed for interactive playtime with family and friends. It features an 8-inch LCD teleconferencing display, along with a projector. The device also has an app that lets you remotely interact with the playspace projected on the screen.
