Samsung SP-H03 pico projector

Weighing in at 210g, the device aims at super portability and hopes to appeal to those of you who are employed with that oh-so-joyous task of performing presentations.

Graham Long, Vice President of Samsung's IT Business Division at Samsung Electronics said:

“The SP-H03 was designed to be extremely portable, eliminating the hassle and setup issues often encountered by presenters as they travel from organisation to organisation".

“By creating a convenient, portable, powerful and inexpensive device, Samsung is poised to assert its leadership at the top of this market”.

Suitable for projecting images from 9 to 80 inches the SP-H03 gives 30 ANSI lumens of brightness and gives you a 1GB internal memory, but is expandable with a MicroSD card so storing data shouldn't be a problem.

The detachable battery will apparently last up to the 2-hour mark in Eco mode (no word on battery life when not in "eco" mode) which should be just enough for presentations, but if you want to watch movies it sounds like you'll need to hunt for a power socket.

Samsung Galaxy Beam: AMOLED touch screen, Android OS, projector

Samsung, which has been making serious plays in the smartphone world, has announced that their "Beam" phone, which has Android and a built-in projector, will soon be shipping.

The phone itself is a real spectacle. It has a 3.7" touchscreen (Super AMOLED display), Android 2.1, Bluetooth 3.0, A-GPS, 802.11n Wi-Fi, an 8MP phone, FM radio, microSD slot and yes, a DLP-based pico projector. It's certainly a never-before-seen set of specifications, and the battery life of 7 hours of talk time is also fairly unheard of.

Samsung P410M compact projector

The P410M boasts up to 800 x 600 resolution and a 1,000:1 contrast ratio, together with inputs that include VGA, composite and a USB port.

There’s also a full remote control, 170 lumen brightness and an LED lamp rated for up to 30,000 hours usage. Twin 1W speakers handle stereo sound, though probably aren’t something you’d like to listen to a whole feature-film on. Unfortunately there’s no sign of a battery, so it looks like the P410M is mains-only.

Apple vs Nokia vs Samsung: projector phone wars?

Apple and Nokia, both sworn mobile enemies, are each said to be plotting projector phones for a 2010 release. Can either gadget giant take on the Samsung i7410 pico projector phone and win? Read on to find out just what they’re beavering away on.

The idea of an Apple or Nokia projector phone might not be as far fetched as tech hounds might like to think. Reports coming out of Taiwan, quoting sources "close to handset manufacturers", suggest that Foxlink, whose parent company Foxconn are behind the iPhone, have already got an in–phone projector ready to go.

Samsung MBP200 Pico projector

Samsung has begun selling their MBP200 convergence device in Germany. Samsung has developed other convergence devices (items that serve multiple functions) and the MBP200's portable media player (PMP) and Pico projector combo doesn't disappoint. While not officially available in the US at this time, it can be purchased and delivered to US customers through online retailers.

A compact portable projector designed to connect directly to mobile phones and laptops the MBP200 brings presentations on the road - sometimes without the need for a laptop. The Pico Projector natively supports PDF and Microsoft Office standard file formats, so you can leave the laptop behind and instead store your presentation on a microSD (in capacities up to 16 GB).

Weighing in at just 160-grams, the Pico Projector is capable of projecting onto a surface as small as a sheet of paper with up to a 50-inch viewing area. Without cooling, I'm not sure how bright the MBP200 is (number of lumens), but for small presentations it's probably adequate and the cool factor is sure to impress.

Because the MBP200 also includes a 2.2-inch QVGA LCD, the device is also a PMP. In fact it's a 4-in-1 file/picture viewer and music/video player. The MBP200 is a no-brainer to pack for business and pleasure and if Samsung ever decides to incorporate a phone, WiFi and Bluetooth, I'd unload a drawer-full of old gear on eBay tomorrow.
