Microvision's SHOW WX pico projector 'out soon'

Sep 16th 2009 4:06PM on Engadget

This smacks of desperation. Microvision was supposed to license its product to manufacturers. Now that they have failed to do this, they are trying to sell their prototype.

IMHO, they are chasing the wrong market. Make a home theater projector with 1080P and higher lumens. Laser is a great tech, but so far it's only being used for rear projection by Mitsubishi.

Anyone who has every belonged to EVDL knows that Dan Fredericksen is a crank who likes to stir the pot. Don't feed the trolls.

Frankfurt Preview: Lexus shrinking luxury into Premium Compact Concept

Because artists who make concept cars have fetishized wheels into some kind of sex object like boobs or biceps or something.

Is retro-fitting older vehicles the solution to accelerating electrification?

If EESTOR ever becomes a reality, this might make economical sense. But lead acid batteries suck and lithium is too expensive.

Coda EV sedan to use UQM motors for propulsion

This whole grille thing reminds me of the standup act at the dawn of the jet age where the guy said "but can I have a propellor"? (I think that was featured in The Right Stuff) or the early cars that featured a fake horse in the front. GET OVER IT.

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I just moved into a new apartment and have been reading about all of the new power strips out there, especially the green ones. I was wondering if you had any suggestions about which "green "power strips are out there with decent joules ratings. And when I say green, I mean power strips that have the remotes or switches to turn off all electricity flowing to certain plugs and with at least 2 plugs that are always on. I was looking specifically at sub $50 because I will need two, but if that is not possible I could be convinced otherwise. Thanks!"
