Cinemin WoWee~!!!!!

1 new entrant into the micro-projector realm that I've noticed is Wowee's Cinemin (Cinnamon, get it? har har har) projector.

WooWee’s Cinemin Swivel is a portable multimedia pico projector based on TI’s DLP projection technology. The projector features 480×320 resolution, 10L brightness and 1000:1 contrast ratio. As the name suggests, the Cinemin Swivel has an adjustable 90-degree hinge for ceiling projection.

At the size of a candy-bar phone, the projector can produce up to 60-inch image. Its built-in battery offers over 2 hours of operation. The Cinemin Swivel works with iPod players, iPhone as well as Flip camcorder, PMP and other multimedia products.

Optoma PK-102

The PK102 does little to improve upon the past, boasting the same native resolution (480 x 320), a 2,000:1 contrast ratio (up from 1,000:1) and the traditional DLP engine. On the plus side, it has managed to trim down ever-so-slightly, step up to 4GB of internal memory and add a few new connectivity options including a composite video input and a universal port capable of receiving VGA and component video signals. Best of all, the PK102 is available now for just $229, which pales in comparison to the $430 or so it took to snag the PK101 on launch day.

At first glance, it would be hard to believe a device the size of a cellphone is capable of projecting an image up to 80". With the crispness and power of LCoS technology, this is possible in a very dim/dark setting.
