By Naresh KumarChauhan /Jan 11 2010

The SHOWWX from Microvision is a portable laser pico projector that connecting to your mobile phones, PDAs, PMPs, digital cameras, netbooks and laptops provides home-theater-sized WVGA (848x480 pixels) movie and photo viewing. Running on a rechargeable battery powered by PicoP display engine, the laser projector comes with a MEMS single scanning mirror to allow a viewing area of up to five meters. Measuring 14 x 60 x 118mm, about the size of a smartphone, the SHOWWX weighs just 122g and supports all the devices with video out capability. Displayed at Las Vegas CES, the laser projector after hitting the Australian and Kiwi stores is awaiting a US launch for about $500 around March 2010.
