Then…..

“Pico” (or “pocket”) projectors introduced --a few models, including one from 3M

“Vaporware” or just cute gadgets?

Updates

Now…..Dozens of models from Dell, 3M, Optoma, Aiptek, Toshiba, Acer, BenQ, Microvision, Samsung, Texas Instruments and BUGlabs that use the DLP Pico chipset and additional models that use LCoS. A new chipset (nHD) released Feb. 16, 2010 that will allow even thinner designs (all using an LED light source)

Updates

Microvision Show WX, does not use an LED light source. It should be the first pico projector to ship using a laser light source. With a laser light source, there's no focusing. It is expected to be more expensive (Microvision estimates the selling price as between $400 and $500.)
