I had [ interview ] answered Rudy De Waele…:

- What about Mobile TV?

I like too much observing people for watching movies or programs while on the move, immobile in a moving train. Yet I recall that summer inviting friends over for diner in the backyard, hanging white sheets, a mobile computer plugged to a projector and speakers. Someone in the yard nearby shouted “you are the best neighbors ever”! So I guess, Mobile TV, if it can allow their usability/spatial extensions for times of rest in any spatial setting, without having to carry much…

On the top stories of Wired News today… the post: Tiny Projectors Make the Video iPod Make Sense… and if you hyperlink… Digital Doodads Debut in NY. You read:

“LEDs also last far longer than regular bulbs — up to 10,000 hours, according to Jane Poon of Toshiba. “By then, probably, laser projectors will be coming out,” she said. The LEDs are not terribly bright: They produce just 20 to 25 ANSI lumens, versus 2,000 for a standard projector such as Toshiba’s equally priced but far larger TDP-S35U DLP. But the microprojector was powerful enough to illuminate its included 23-inch fold-up screen, even under the intense lighting at New York’s Javits Center. And in a dark room, it can project an image measuring up to 68 inches diagonal, according to Poon.”
