Great post, Mike! I can't wait to get my hands on one of those little projectors! I share your concern with the ubiquity of advertising, but The camera is the new gun. Is a HUGE statement! I think it is. One camera can take down a government. Cheers, Ron Watson http://k9disc.blip.tv

Yeah, Ron, I concur: great post. Well, well, well... Cameras = guns. Based upon states' recent leaps to control 'em, you are onto something, particularly if these hand-held projectors will be battery-powered. As you might imagine, find this product extremely exciting news. Already, images are

There's both rub and irony that in this beginning of the high tech age, we return to the silent film. Perhaps advertisers will have Bluetooth-available audio? Perhaps if the motion pictures are delivered via the web, one might stream the audio over one's cell phone. The challenge

This has always been my biggest fear, that sooner or later on a very small number of sites will even host user generated content. Let's face it, if you are hosting all these video's, like you said, sooner or later you have to turn a profit, to stay in business.With site's like Hulu and

Yay very interesting post :) Ive had half an eye on these small projectors for some years. There is currently a massive flaw in their spec. They arent bright enough, by a large factor. Its unclear whether they will be able to overcome this in the next few years or not. If they do, then this has

Well yes the trend towards laws that crackdown on this sort of stuff is alarming, and does not bode well. Frankly I expected even worse by now, recalling that in the first few years after 9/11, there were stories about how seemingly innocent video of tourist attractions was actually fiendish
