Mobile Phone Projectors "Will Launch This Year"

Posted by kdawson on from the is-that-a-laser-in-your-pocket dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Mobile phones with built-in mini projectors will launch later this year, according to 3M, which gave PC Pro a hands-on demonstration of the technology at CES 2008. The projector has a brightness of around 8-10 lumens, and is capable of displaying an image of up to 50 in., although 3M's spokesperson Greg Roberts told us that, with perfect lighting conditions, it's possible to squeeze a 60-in. screen out of the projector."

    This is only going to lead to millions of college students slipping a 50" cock into the professor's lecture while he isn't looking.

      I don't want to be that old guy who bitches about how easy kids have it these days, but when I was a college freshman, we didn't have anything like this. If I wanted to distract the class with an absurdly large cock, I had to whip out my own.

    Why a cellphone? so that everyone can see who's calling me?
