Sure, 80 percent of the attendees of this year’s ISE show in Amsterdam are European, but, it’s the sheer numbers of them that astounded me — and many others here at Integrated Systems Europe in February 2011.

Weighing less than an iPhone, Samsung’s first Pico LED projector, the H03, will feature 30 ANSI brightness in a lightweight, fairly cool looking design – but it’s not official, yet.

So far, this is the brightest (if you believe the specs) LED-lit projector on the market. The LCD-based, SP-F10M is XGA resolution (1024×768), has both analog (VGA) and digital (HDMI) ports and weighs in at just under 10 pounds. Although the specs are impressive, the reason we’re covering this is that it’s spec’d at the […]
