    Alright, so its not a new XPS Refresh, but during Dell's Latitude E series powerpoint presentation, Dell unveils/exposes the world to the smallest LED projector that fits in your pocket and no bigger than a mug. Not bad! Courtesy of Engadget.

    That is sweet. It reminds me of the cell phone they had with a projector at CES this year. But it could only project to something slightly larger than a regular sheet of paper. Still though, it was IN A CELL PHONE!

    Maybe the days of 3D human image projections off the cell phone (a la Enterprise) is nearer than we think!

    (and just recently, a former NASA moonwalker claims Alien contact established and HIDDEN by govt)

    Ah, the world is full of Sonority.

    Why would you want to carry a projector in your pocket?

    Some college classes dont have a working projector, so for professors and paranoid students who're presenting that day may find this gadget useful?

    I really dont know :D

    [Corporate suits gather in a room to do a presentation]
    Woman: Is that a projector in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?
    Corporate suit: Actually it's just a projector. *pulls out new slim Dell projector*

    :D
