projectors getting smaller and smaller

With all the news about larger and larger LCDs, plasmas and RPTVs, it’s nice to see that front projection is alive and well. The story here is miniaturization thanks to super-bright LED projection technology. Mitsubishi has had a similar projector for about a year now, and Sony is now releasing what they claim to be the “world’s smallest projector.”
It’s still only a 800×600 image, but pretty amazing that the whole thing is just about 25 cubic inches in volume, fits in the palm of your hand, has zero warm up time, and no bulb to ever replace.
No pricing information has been released yet, but I think I need one of these bad boys in my briefcase. [via newlaunches.com]

[...] How would you like to project a movie from your cell-phone or carry a screen-free computer that can turn any wall into your monitor. Israel-based Explay (not with Adam Sessler and Morgan Webb) has plans to release a Matchbox-sized projector can create images from 7″ to 35″ in size using lasers.The images are always in-focus and use amazingly low power. This might actually have beaten the “worlds’ smallest projector” claim by Sony in my earlier posting. [...]
