Apparently "smartness" has not invaded projectors...per a comment I read here on kbin a while back from a projector owner. This really encourages me to buy one.

It did though, last time I went to a tech store, there was a samsung smart projector that had all the capabilities of a smart tv

I hope it is not ubiquitous.

Not yet, but it is definitely heading that direction

Although a projector would need you to have a home with a whole spare wall. And would force you to dim the lights all the time.
