Acer K10 pocket projector finally lands in the UK

Acer announced its K10 pocket projector way back in December, but it looks like it's just now finally landed in the UK, and unfortunately received a bit of a price hike in the process. Now retailing for just over £400 (or $560, roughly a $100 increase), the SVGA projector otherwise seems to have remained unchanged since its debut, with it still promising an impressive 20,000 hour lamp life, and offering up 100 ANSI lumens of brightness, a 1,000:1 contrast ratio, and a projected image size up to 60 inches. As you can see, it's also not quite able to join the ranks of pico projectors, though its specs certainly beat out most of its smaller cousins.

I have the Dell pocket projector, didn't know this one existed. I like the Dell, but wonder if this one is better.

"As you can see, it's also not quite able to join the ranks of pico projectors". No I really can't see from that picture. Now if I click the Read link, THEN I know what you're talking about 'cuz I can see a picture of the projector in someone's hand...

100 lumens + 800x600 sounds amazing.

I used the Dell mini projector which has only 50 lumens, and it was pretty sweet for throwing Hulu episodes of Arrested Development and the Office up in a dark room
