Comments on: A movie projector in a cell phone?

A start-up is developing an ultra-compact projector it hopes will someday be sold as an accessory for a wide range of mobile devices.

Projector in mobile phones

Ok nice but what kind of resolution will the projected pictuer have, and how big will the display be ??
14" 800x600 more or less ??

What do you know....

.... another post with a totally useless and/or irrelevant link. At
least it isn't a link to a persona; blowhard site

Physics may still be physics....

... I have a 8 LED 3.6 volt flashlight (White light) which could be
typical of a video projector illumination. The LED's, coupled with
a LCD screen, might be capable of putting a 14" color picture on
a screen 6' away. But that would take quite a bit of improvement
in the illumination efficiency over this simple example.

So, it could be done. But whether or not it could be done well
enough to be useful is yet to be proven. And then, there is
always the question of whether or not anyone would be willing
to pay for the feature.

I don't think that I would. But then, I'm still trying to find a cell
phone that works well enough as a phone.
