TI showcases diminutive DLP pico-projector

If anyone doubted Texas Instruments' sincerity in taking the mobile projection world by storm, now would probably be a good time to start boiling some crow. Making good on its wishes to cram DLP into even the most minuscule of locations, the company will be demonstrating its newfangled DLP pico-projector to select media groups, and apparently, those interested in taking a peek better have a front row seat. The mini projector will supposedly "fit in your fingertips," but beyond that vague descriptor, we're not exactly sure about the hard measurements. Notably, it appears that TI's wee PJ could act as a standalone unit "or as an integrated component in a mobile device," which would definitely spruce up current smartphone offerings. Sadly, there wasn't an estimated timeframe as to when we'd (barely) see these devices crammed into cellphone enclosures, but it's just a matter of time before we're streaming live television shows and simultaneously beaming 'em up for all of the subway car to see.

Am I the only one who clicked in from an RSS feed only to be dissapointed that the "TI" in question isn't....

I like my beat down low
and my top laid back
when I'm riding tweny-fo's

I was really looking forward to his use of DLP pico-projection

So when can I mount one of these on R2D2? We still need the thin air virtual screen.

You can stream to your cellphone in the subway?

Yes, and the RIAA, among others, will want to sue your ass to the ground by allowing others to view what you have! Oh joy. Seriously though, I'd love one of these hooked up to my X51V!
