Mitsubishi LED Projector: Small, Cheap, Durable

mcaycedo writes "This new projector is my top number 1 "must have" gadget. The reasons: price (US$699), size (fit in your hand), convenience (uses AC, batteries, card adaptor) and duration (lamp life:20000 hours). The cons: only SVGA (800x600), lumens (N/A)" There are tons of applications for a LED projector of this size, too: in cars, integrated into portable video players, information displays of all kinds ... and as resolution and brightness improve, even more will emerge.

Only, you say...

"only SVGA (800x600)"

My 80486DX4 is only VGA (640x480), you insensitive clod!

Obligatory joke

Hmm. I have $699 to burn...
Do I buy a LED projector, or a SCO license?

hmm, it's illegal to watch tv while driving

but what if you mounted one on your dashboard, and followed a semi with a nice white door..

with a little fm transmitter, you could even share the monotony breaker with neighboring cars..

watch a DVD on a cross country trip?

whoa fred- screens getting big! better brake!

number 1?

This new projector is my top number 1 "must have" gadget.

I'm curious what other number 1 "must have" gadgets are on your list.

I wonder what kind of entertainment would be useful to watch while lying down in bed?

I've got an alarm clock radio that could play MP3s, and it has a 19-inch monitor.

It even plays Oggs too:
