@clR3vv: Yeah, the Tegra is actually the most efficient system on a chip available. It has many different smaller dedicated processors, and only throws powers towards the ones it needs at the moment. Such as the HD Video Encoder or the Decoder.

* GPU

I still want a Tegra-based cellphone with a hard gamepad built in (something that looks like the PSPGo) and big name studios developing games for it. I would love that.
@HeartBurnKid: Agent of R.O.A.C.H.: Sounds kind of like that nokia phone (I think it was nokia, having a tough time remembering because it was laughed into obscurity).
@zeroprime: Yeah, but that was terrible execution. It still had a shitty cellphone screen, for one, and you had to take out the battery to change games. And the thing was HUGE, by cellphone standards.
And don't forget sidetalking.
@lixiaochenx277: Include a cell-phone radio for online multiplayer and to consolidate my phone into the device, and I'm sold.

There's no reason these Pico Projectors shouldn't be able to make a profit in the $100 range.
It's something that the makers know are relatively cheap to make. Few components, small package, light... However, it needs to sell for more because it can...
Brands like COBY & Mintek will certainly pick up on this.
50 lumens is really the minimum, from my experience. As much as it would be nice to have something small like a pico projector, until they get to that level they're just pointless.
I'd say this $100 purchase is a great investment. Buy it, practice with it and, in no time, you'll be able to save thousands of dollars by simply levitating your purchases past the checkstands unnoticed.
Man, you guys are fact-checking the hell out of me today, and I appreciate it. I was clearly not paying 100% attention when I wrote it. Busy day. Sorry!!
There's no mention of expansion via eSATA like on TiVo and cable boxes, nor is there any mention of the internet apps we have come to expect in everything devices like this one.

@Mr.Purple: Wouldn't they be Obamaville? If we learned anything from Clinton, stuff that happens at the end of the the last term becomes the next guys fault, i.e the economy.

I'd be all bound up tittering over my own cleverness like a knucklehead, but HE just rolls with it and it's all win.
Well..at least after editing... ;)
I kid. REALLY quite good.

My advice - more stories on paper houses. I think those will be all the rage in 2009.
