Mini Projector By...

Texas instruments! B)

Awesome invention: http://tech.monstersandcritics.com/news/ar...e_DLP_projector

Would be so cool on a portable (in case it will be crowded with posts about flux capacitors and anti-matter engines in this topic, I DO understand it won't happen )

if they could make it an add on module that could be plugged into the TV out as opposed to the regular screen, that'd be so awesome on a massive level. but how much would something like that cost? $200 eh, i dunno. if it were cost effective ( around $50 or so) then it'd be on the wish list next to the Pandora itself.

but, who knows if TI would release something this awesome to the general public.

but i don't know how they would work on the touchscreen, if you think about it (without having a massive drain on the battery... unless it was self contained.)

Truthfully, that is pretty cool... I have a Mitsubishi PK-20 pocket projector that I use with my GP2X, although not totally portable (I need to buy the battery for the projector still) it's proven to be quite a nice toy

having a handheld or cellphone with a projector is a very cool idea imo, we'll see what happens I guess

You could, in the case of TV-out, still have the touchscreen active without lighting up pixels, using it like a tablet for your PC, like the Wacom tablets.

Well I expect pocketprojectors to be pretty common in stores within 2 years time, and really affordable in 4 years and so in between that time it may also become popular on handhelds

Couldn't the projector simply be powered by an build in accu by the way?
