The intro video does an excellent job of hiding the fact that this needs a power cord. There's one quick shot shows a hole drilled into the middle of the kitchen island to provide access to the USB-C cord.

I was looking for the power cord as well, and required actually looking for it.

I’m curious about the wall mounted option, and how that gets power without an electrician running a line to the middle of the wall. It looked like there might be a PoE option, but that also needs cable run. It seems like a bit of a project.

“Power Mount PoE Wired” is an option that will be available in early 2027. I can already see this being a decent option for kitchens that had a wall phone plate (that, hopefully, was wired with Cat 5e…).

Paired with some yet-to-be-released homeOS VoIP app… chefs kiss.

homeOS VoIP app

Like FaceTime?

Like something that would integrate with an existing SIP server like FreePBX.

People wall-mount flat screen TVs without an electrician all the time, and it's no big deal. Because of its size, this should be even simpler.

That only works if you live in a paper house. Drilling through normal brick/concrete walls is not that easy - we do call someone when we need our wall mounted TV setup.
