While the hologram looked creepy, this is the first time it's ever been used on live TV, so give them a break. 10 years from now, you won't remember what it was like when hologram people were NOT on TV all the time.]]>Nov 4th 2008 11:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/04/cnns-holographic-freakout-begins-seems-totally-bizarre-and-unn/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/04/cnns-holographic-freakout-begins-seems-totally-bizarre-and-unn/Nov 4th 2008 9:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/04/cnns-holographic-freakout-begins-seems-totally-bizarre-and-unn/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/04/cnns-holographic-freakout-begins-seems-totally-bizarre-and-unn/Nov 4th 2008 9:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/04/cnns-holographic-freakout-begins-seems-totally-bizarre-and-unn/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/04/cnns-holographic-freakout-begins-seems-totally-bizarre-and-unn/

I wish the studio camera had moved around more to make the effect more dramatic. I only saw two pretty static angles, from the front and from the rear. I like the explanation she gave of standing in a tent surrounded by HD cameras. That should provide 360-degree rotatability of her image.]]>Nov 4th 2008 8:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/04/cnns-holographic-freakout-begins-seems-totally-bizarre-and-unn/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/04/cnns-holographic-freakout-begins-seems-totally-bizarre-and-unn/
