One of these days, I want to get a projector. It seemed like such a lost cause to go looking for one, though, not just because of the space around here, but because I thought something else would be coming over the horizon soon.
I thought LEDs would be coming soon. It's been a tough road to get affordable white LEDs, and many of the consumer grade ones are a little too blue to be a good white, but I thought it was coming. I remember, but cannot find, a good 20+ pages long forum thread somewhere with people trying to hack together an LED-based projector with clusters of white LEDs, mini-LCD screens and lenses. I don't know how close to success they came, but they were all agog with the possibility of putting it all in a wooden case, something impossible to do with the ultra-high pressure lamps of today.
Well, it's a bit of a rough entry, but a few companies have finally bit the bullet and come out with LED projectors - as almost "handheld" (not by design, but they nearly fit in your hand) mini-projectors.
Toshiba is announcing one, and Mitsubishi has one.
It's only a matter of time before these become bigger and better.
I'm interested to see where the LED revolution will lead next.
Do piss off, linton. This is a word-for-word paste from elsewhere, and has not a bloody thing to do with LEDs. Just saw Mitsubishi and had to spam, mm, my crappy chappy?
