It will be very interesting to see how this market develops.]]>Jan 6th 2009 12:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/06/3ms-mm200-micro-projector-seeks-integration-within-cellphones/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/06/3ms-mm200-micro-projector-seeks-integration-within-cellphones/
If you make an all in one device with a foldout keyboard and a laptop lcd screen, it would be very portable.

The obvious problem would be cooling - but, there are plenty of ways to cool a device like this, if you are using an energy efficient LED set for your light source.]]>Jan 6th 2009 12:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/06/3ms-mm200-micro-projector-seeks-integration-within-cellphones/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/06/3ms-mm200-micro-projector-seeks-integration-within-cellphones/Jan 6th 2009 12:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/06/3ms-mm200-micro-projector-seeks-integration-within-cellphones/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/06/3ms-mm200-micro-projector-seeks-integration-within-cellphones/Jan 6th 2009 12:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/06/3ms-mm200-micro-projector-seeks-integration-within-cellphones/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/06/3ms-mm200-micro-projector-seeks-integration-within-cellphones/Jan 6th 2009 12:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/06/3ms-mm200-micro-projector-seeks-integration-within-cellphones/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/06/3ms-mm200-micro-projector-seeks-integration-within-cellphones/Personally I think they have a future, once the price gets to $60 and below, but before that they are mainly to fill engadget with articles on slow days, which isn't a bad gig for them surely.

In any case, 3Ms excitement over a new product seems to correlate directly to the number of Ms they put in the model number so this MM200 must be pretty good but when the MMMMMMM5000 comes out then we'll be rawkin'.]]>Jan 6th 2009 12:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/06/3ms-mm200-micro-projector-seeks-integration-within-cellphones/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/06/3ms-mm200-micro-projector-seeks-integration-within-cellphones/Jan 6th 2009 12:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/06/3ms-mm200-micro-projector-seeks-integration-within-cellphones/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/06/3ms-mm200-micro-projector-seeks-integration-within-cellphones/Jan 6th 2009 12:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/06/3ms-mm200-micro-projector-seeks-integration-within-cellphones/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/06/3ms-mm200-micro-projector-seeks-integration-within-cellphones/Jan 6th 2009 1:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/06/3ms-mm200-micro-projector-seeks-integration-within-cellphones/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/06/3ms-mm200-micro-projector-seeks-integration-within-cellphones/

The Aaxatech and Aiptek units are 1/2 the price (~$250), are brighter, have higher resolution, and have onboard video decoding... There was actually a $199 unit at Aiptek's booth (but with no onboard video decoding)... Guess which one I'd rather own? ]]>Feb 6th 2009 4:33AM
