I do not believe Sanyo projector could support 30fps because there are no driver is needed to install into customer's computer. Why do I have such a judgement? No driver install means that Sanyo software can only obtain the screen picture of computer by applying windows GDK. I tested the performance GDK 2 years before. No more than 5 fps could be achieved. Delta Electronics will release its high performance IP projector soon, which could support XGA resolution with 30fps. User could play a video with computer and send the screen pictures (30 frame/second) to projector by LAN. Based on my knowledge, Delta is the sole one who achieves such performance. A driver is needed to install in user's computer before user use the IP projector.
Hi, NateMan99, LCD Tv and LCD monitor are really very different in LCD panel and electronics. LCD TV panel usually has high contrast (>1000:1), high brightness (>500nits), good color gamut (NTSC/xvYCC), and wide view angle (>170 degree). To achieve these advantages, LCD TV panel has bigger pixel size. However, LCD monitor's panel is much poor than TV panel. It usually has 500:1 contrast, 300nits brightness, and sRGB color space, which is much smaller than NTSC. Since Tv need to receive many kinds of signal, such as Composit video, S Video, YCbCr/YPbPr, HDMI, VGA,DVI, 480i/p, 720p, 1080i/p, LCD TV electronics are much complex than that of LCD monitor. LCD TV embodys de-interlacer to convert interlaced signa into progressive signal for LCD display, and scalar to scale up/down the input signal to the resolution of panel.However, LCD monitor usually only receive VGA progressive signal from PC, so de-interlacer is not needed. The scalar in LCD monitor is usually much poor than that in LCD TV. To improve image quality, LCD TV adopts many advanced image/video enhancement techniques, such as 3D noise reduction, color enhancement, fresh tone adjustment, DCDi, and so on. All of these are not applied in a LCD monitor. From above, we can see that LCD TV is really different with monitor, though they looks same. To development a good TV set, company must focus on color reproduction, moving object response, dark picture display, noise reduction, channel sensitivity, and so on. TV is a much complex product than monitor.
I wonder whether such a small display is usefull in home. It is too small to show beautiful pictures and movs. $200 is still too expensive.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm heading to university next year, and I've purchased a MacBook. I'm also taking my four year old desktop, just in case I'm left with no computers when the MacBook is being repaired or whatnot. With only two USB ports on a MacBook, I want a Bluetooth mouse. Budget is about $100, and of course, it needs OS X support. Thanks for the help!"
