iProjector: video projector with built-in iPod dock
Here's another convincing reason your boss should buy you an iPod. The iProjector is a video projector with a built-in iPod dock. And that dock isn't just for show - with your iPod inserted you can project your videos directly onto your conference room or home theater screen. The dock also charges your iPod battery and if your video source happens to be a plain old DVD player, gaming console or computer - heck, you can attach those things too.The iProjector is scheduled to debut at CES 2007 and is brought to us by Ion Audio, makers of the ITTUSB Turntable, which I happen to love.Here's what we know about the iProjector so far: It works with iPod with video, iPod photo and iPod nano, supports SVGA 800x600 native resolution, 24-bit color, 1000 ANSI lumens brightness and throws a projection size of 30 inches by 90 inches. Not too shabby! What we don't know yet is the price. Stay tuned till January![via DVGuru]Thanks, David!
Ion Audio set to debut iProjector
While it definitely reduces the portable side of the portable video equation, Ion Audio is hoping that there's enough iPod users fed up with watching movies on their device's tiny displays to thrown down the cash for its new big-screen alternative. Set to debut at CES in January, the iProjector will let you slip in your video-equipped iPod and blow up the picture exponentially, with an adequate 800 x 600 resolution, 24-bit color, and 1,000 lumens brightness (contrast ratio doesn't seem to have been announced yet). Of course, the projector's more than just an iPod dock, able to work just as easily with a DVD player, game console, or other video source, although the all-important input situation has yet to be clarified. While the specs are certainly on the low end, we'd be able to live with it if the price is right but, you guessed it, that hasn't been announced either. Hopefully we'll be able to fill in the gaps (and get a better look at the thing) once CES rolls around.[Via Crave]
