A digital projector from Apple?

Somehow we missed it when word hit the street about this back in January, but Apple is supposed to be coming out with a high-resolution digital projector next month. Just like that aluminum Cinema Display we had pics of the other day, this is one is only a poorly substantiated rumor. Our immediate  thought it is that an Apple digital projector might have some sort of tie in with that other big Apple rumor, an iPod with a video-out port for looking at digital photos on a TV (the prospect of which should inspire fear in anyone who had to sit through endless slideshows of other people's vacation pics as a child), but over at osViews Kelly McNeill things that they could actually be working on a combination projector/computer that would work with a movie version of iTunes and be the Mac digital entertainment hub that a lot of people have been hoping and dreaming for.
