    Chalk up a few more for Luminus Devices, who has just announced that three more projectors are sporting its PhlatLight technology. Acer's K10 pocket projector is home to the company's PT-39, while the PT-120 makes itself comfortable in Chi Lin Technology's next generation HD home theater beamer. Finally, the company's tech will also be within Delta Electronics' HT-8000, which is set to go down as the industry's first Full HD LED-based DLP projector. In related news, Luminus is also debuting its PT-121 chipset, which aims to make things even brighter and more colorful for future lamp-free beamers. Jump on past the break for the full release, and don't mind the bragging.

    If your friends ever cracked a single joke on you for having a liquid-cooled gaming rig, watch real close and see if they don't end up swooning over this one. Taiwanese OEM / ODM supplier Chilin Technology has introduced the planet's first "lamp-free 1080p projector with liquid cooling" at this year's CEDIA Expo. The firm has partnered with Luminus Devices (for its PhlatLight LED) and Texas Instruments (for its 1080p DMD tech) in order to produce the device, which will boast 600 ANSI lumens, a 100,000:1 contrast ratio, 128% NTSC color gamut and a lamp good for around 50,000 hours (or, in Chillin's view, forever). As for a release date, we know it'll be demonstrated here in Denver, but there's no word on how quickly it'll begin shipping out to customers.
