3M’s Pocket Video Projector First to Hit Shops, 30th September
7:12PM Kit Eaton | Back in May we brought you some more data on the upcoming 3M pocket video projector, but only guesses on its release date: now we know it’s September 30th. The palm-sized MPro110 has a VGA and composite video input, so it’ll be good for either your laptop or portable gadgets with video-out. It’s got manual focus, but no speaker—but for most purposes I guess you won’t miss that. The guys at PopSci liked it, noting that it’s pretty basic but projects nicely onto walls, desks, paper and people in a variety of lighting conditions. We’ll have to wait to closer to the launch to hear more details, but the gizmo is set to cost US$359. [PopSci via TheEarthTimes] More »
