Uniden Scanner Appearance in Deus Ex: Human Revolution

[iguyer]

It appears an artist for the game Deus Ex: Human Revolution believes Detroit Police will be using Uniden police scanners as police radios in 2027. Model of the scanner (with blurred-out "Uniden" brand name) appears to be a mix between the BC346XT and the BC72XLT.

It gave me a good laugh so I thought I would share it:

I got a text message from the future and you are correct.

He looks pretty stoned to me. Maybe he grabbed a scanner instead of his FTS8700.

yes i know FTS7800 doest exist but the game is set in 2027 so by then it should.

No. Actually, the Chinese have taken over and have injected their subscripts with just a touch of Asian DNA (They don't want all of us to "look alike"), lol.

Fun to see scanners in places like this and even more fun seeing how they are usually totally misused.

The TV show Burn Notice has upgraded from their old PRO-83 to an iScan this season btw.
