Actually... keep reading. The thing costs $199 WITHOUT the projector. They expect you to shell out the price of another phone ($179) for that luxury.]]>Nov 30th 2009 2:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/lgs-pico-projector-packing-winmo-expo-outed-for-atandt/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/lgs-pico-projector-packing-winmo-expo-outed-for-atandt/

Unfortunately I'm enamoured with my HTC Fuze and I wont be switching out the phone until the 3rd generation comes in with either snapdragon or tegra. (and hopefully they'll kill the tilt "function")]]>Nov 30th 2009 12:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/lgs-pico-projector-packing-winmo-expo-outed-for-atandt/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/lgs-pico-projector-packing-winmo-expo-outed-for-atandt/nm. I just read the press release and the projector does cost extra... it's not as interesting as it originally was now...............]]>Nov 30th 2009 12:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/lgs-pico-projector-packing-winmo-expo-outed-for-atandt/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/lgs-pico-projector-packing-winmo-expo-outed-for-atandt/What is wrong with tilting? Very useful for when its on the desk. It clicks into place anyways, you don't have to tilt it if you don't want to.]]>Nov 30th 2009 12:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/lgs-pico-projector-packing-winmo-expo-outed-for-atandt/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/lgs-pico-projector-packing-winmo-expo-outed-for-atandt/From reviews I have read and from the mouth of many ATT agents, the original tilt had a problem where it becomes much much more vulnerable in tilt mode. When i was thinking of getting either the tilt or wait for the fuze, i asked the guy what people thought of the tilt and he told me that he got alot of insurance replacements on these phones due to its weakness at the tilt. I thought it was an isolated incident in one area, but after going to roughly 5 other stores, they all say the same thing.
I don't think the tilt 2 will improve upon that since the concept is that the more moveable hinges you have on an object, the more vulnerable it will become.

that and I think it's ridiculous to try to type on the phone when it's tilted, unless you want to poke your phone to death. (ofcourse movie viewing is much nicer in a tilt but that's it.)]]>Nov 30th 2009 12:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/lgs-pico-projector-packing-winmo-expo-outed-for-atandt/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/lgs-pico-projector-packing-winmo-expo-outed-for-atandt/apparently, the fuze had the highest return rate (straight from a warranty rep). I replaced mine 4 times]]>Nov 30th 2009 12:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/lgs-pico-projector-packing-winmo-expo-outed-for-atandt/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/lgs-pico-projector-packing-winmo-expo-outed-for-atandt/I didn't know that. I also don't know why it's being returned. The tilts were returned because the hinge breaking the phone in half on the smallest impact. That was mainly my arguement. I have not had to get my fuze fixed at any point or time. It worked fine even after falling straight out of my backpack on concrete (it had no protection except for teh screen). I've dropped it plenty more times and everything still works fine.
But yeah, I'm not a fan of the tilt function because it simply makes the phone more vulnerable.]]>Nov 30th 2009 12:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/lgs-pico-projector-packing-winmo-expo-outed-for-atandt/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/lgs-pico-projector-packing-winmo-expo-outed-for-atandt/Nov 30th 2009 1:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/lgs-pico-projector-packing-winmo-expo-outed-for-atandt/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/lgs-pico-projector-packing-winmo-expo-outed-for-atandt/I see. The things I've said, are as metioned earlier, anecdotes from the sales associates themselves. I think the tilt itself is an interested function, but I was terrified of the fact that a small drop can break it (according to the att guys. keep in mind I did not mention anything about looking for the fuze NOR do they know anything about the fuze's release). but I think it simply might just be negligence due to the user's fault. Good point nonetheless]]>Nov 30th 2009 1:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/lgs-pico-projector-packing-winmo-expo-outed-for-atandt/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/lgs-pico-projector-packing-winmo-expo-outed-for-atandt/http://www.lgexpo.com/ to get more info on this phone. It's more than what engadget says it is. They didn't mention that it's a 5mp camera WITH a flash, which is pretty important for most people, and they didn't mention the fingerprint reader on the front (the little gold bar) that can be used to secure the phone and act as a navigation pad for the OS. You can also use it for camera functions like zooming in and out, as well as media player functions like rewinding/fastforwarding videos/music. I chose this one over the tilt 2.]]>Dec 9th 2009 2:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/lgs-pico-projector-packing-winmo-expo-outed-for-atandt/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/lgs-pico-projector-packing-winmo-expo-outed-for-atandt/Nov 30th 2009 12:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/lgs-pico-projector-packing-winmo-expo-outed-for-atandt/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/lgs-pico-projector-packing-winmo-expo-outed-for-atandt/Nov 30th 2009 12:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/lgs-pico-projector-packing-winmo-expo-outed-for-atandt/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/lgs-pico-projector-packing-winmo-expo-outed-for-atandt/Nov 30th 2009 12:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/lgs-pico-projector-packing-winmo-expo-outed-for-atandt/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/lgs-pico-projector-packing-winmo-expo-outed-for-atandt/I think snapdragon gives better battery life.

It's similar but uses laser technology and has been developed to be an embedded product. The battery life is way longer than any of the TI or 3Ms out there so far. Picture quality and performance are also stellar.]]>Dec 1st 2009 7:43PM
