In a dark room ( I said dark no pitch black) it will work fine, but under ordinary lighting, youd barely be able to see anything.  An lcd screen is 300 lumens and that is meant to illuminate in a room of ordinary lighting.  So a good product would give at least (100 lumens w screen and 300 w/o) in lit conditions.  Don't forget that lumens are lost when hitting the wall particularly in a lit room; in a dark room it doesn't make that much of a difference.  However some screens actually provide gain in lumens.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[eric]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 6th 2009 12:47PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Microvision's laser-based SHOW WX pico projector shines at CEATEC (video)]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/06/video-microvisions-laser-based-show-wx-pico-projector-shines-a/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/06/video-microvisions-laser-based-show-wx-pico-projector-shines-a/</guid><description><![CDATA[I am guessing the lumens are measured over the whole screen.

These'll be much brighter than a 10 lumen non-laser picopj because the laser can turn completely off for a black pixel so the contrast is crazy high and much easier to see in a lit room. A lcd based projector needs to illuminate all of the pixels in it's display, so black really will still be illuminated so the image will always be a little washed out. That and the always-in-focus laser advantage really are the selling points of this type of tech. Can't wait to see these replace home theater projectors... smaller, better image quality, no $$$ bulbs to replace - ever.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[matt]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 6th 2009 11:04PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Microvision's laser-based SHOW WX pico projector shines at CEATEC (video)]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/06/video-microvisions-laser-based-show-wx-pico-projector-shines-a/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/06/video-microvisions-laser-based-show-wx-pico-projector-shines-a/</guid><description><![CDATA[Well, the lumen count on a projector is assuming a fully white screen, so I don't think the contrast really factors into it.  As for the bulb, there are plenty of things in this that may have a limited lifetime, depending on exactly how it's designed, and when a laser diode dies, I think it'll be time to replace the whole thing, for more than $$$.<br><br>The always-focussed feature is great for a handheld projector, but I think traditional tech will win out for a long time on brightness and price in the full-sized market.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Feign]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 7th 2009 12:32PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Microvision's laser-based SHOW WX pico projector shines at CEATEC (video)]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/06/video-microvisions-laser-based-show-wx-pico-projector-shines-a/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/06/video-microvisions-laser-based-show-wx-pico-projector-shines-a/</guid><description><![CDATA[Great review, thank you.
