LG's HS101 portable LED Chocolate-inspired projector arrives
We could hardly believe the audacity when LG first started touting its Chocolate hand held projector, but now that they've played down the cross-branding -- it's just known as the HS101 now -- and rounded out a few more of the specs, we're beginning to see the light. The teensy, 1.7 pound LED DLP projector runs at a 2000:1 contrast ratio, with 800 x 600 pixels at a standard 4:3 ratio. The LED is rated at 20,000 hours, which means an end to extravagant bulb purchases. There are of course those soft-touch keys, and a lot of black all over, but we won't begrudge LG those little Chocolate nods. Inputs include DV, D-Sub and DVI, and the projector will be available worldwide for 799 Euros ($1090 US).
LG's Chocolate DLP "hand held" projector
Ok, we admit it, we never saw it coming. Introducing the Chocolate "hand held" DLP projector from LG. Guess we can't blame 'em, when you've got a winning design you just kinda have to milk that teet. But sweet baby jeebus, under what situation is a projector really useful as a hand held? Not like it runs on batteries or anything. Best we can tell from the pics, you'll get VGA and HDMI inputs for projecting images on the side of vans, in the car, in the office, or uh, in the mall. Really. In fact, we've got our interns holding a few right now, projecting our delicate prose into the lard tubs at Sbarro's. Oh juicy meatball, how you mock thee. More of the goods after the break.
