Want to share those photos or videos you’ve just taken with your iPod/iPhone with friends? At 112.8 X 48.0 X 16.0mm (4.4 X 1.8 X 0.60 in) and 98g (3.5oz), the PoP Video pico projector is small enough to carry in your pocket and turns your iPod 3G/4G or iPhone 3GS/4/4S into a portable projector. It’s able to project a qHD (960X540) picture onto the nearest surface at an optimal distance of 13 – 130 cms (5 – 40 in). The built-in lithium-ion battery gives up to two hours and charges via Micro-USB.
Is that a projector in your pocket or……… 
Currently available for preorder for $99 and expected to ship on or before June 1, 2012.

there’s tons of such projectors on the market. but all of them have short battery life and very low image quality.
i can’t imagine who is need them in REAL life.
This is fantastic! I wish my mobile phone had this built into the device. Apple revealed some ideas last year. Being able to share content using a projector is like the counterpart to the camera or having a bigger screen available instantly. This is as revolutionary as the camera at the time. Of course the battery life and even more the lux (brightness of the LED) are the challenges.
To those who ask “why bother?”…this is the coolest use of the micro projectors we have seen to date:

If these “anywhere” interfaces are to work, pico projectors will have to play a part.
