The Samsung W7900, aka the Show, certainly lives up to its name. In fact, if it had just the gorgeous 3.2-inch OLED screen, the digital TV tuner or the five-megapixel camera, it would be a winner. But the Show combines all those features with the (current) Holy Grail of handhelds -- a digital projector that displays sharp, bright images up to 50 inches.
Our friends at Texas Instruments, which makes the DLP projector inside the Show, let us snag the phone for a quick hands-on.
As with most great gadgets, the Show premiers in Asia. (That may make it the first projector phone to hit the market, depending on when rival Logic Wireless gets its Logic Bolt out.) We don't know exactly when it comes out, but it looks like lucky Koreans will be the first to watch movies and display photos on the big screen, courtesy of any flat or semi-flat surface they find. They will also get to tune in and (we think) record digital TV broadcasts, plus make video calls. We're still waiting to hear if and when the Show or something like it will cross over to these shores.Below are some key specs. See the slideshow for lots more info.

Sadly this just shows how far behind we have gotten in tech. When he was going through the features we will not get it made me a bit sad.
Hopefully we will get upgraded to the same standard as the rest of the world sometime in the near future.
Beautiful device, I want one.
How long does the battery last when projecting? <-- A question that should have been answered 20 seconds into the video. Get with it, Popsci.
King of NERDS - thats great but in america it's useless unless you just want a tiny projector but you can just but a handheld one from america and the heck with the Iphone when I could have one of these.
I'm with kyleb as regards battery runtime, but what's even more interesting is the question whether the phone supports other video sources which would be sort of a killer app together with netbooks such as the Eee or the Acer One.
Uncompressed video of 480x320px @ 25Hz requires 10,98 MB/s, so USB should do the trick and technically all that would be needed is a driver that identifies the phone as a 480x320px projector (and the corresponding hw on the phone of course).
If they didn't pack this one with the functionality I really hope they do with the follow-up model.
man this phone is one of the cool es i have ever seen i really like the DLP projector that what got me to like this phone man us. need more teckfor the people u know teck ruls.
I like the phone but the toutch screen could be improved. it took multiple taps to use and it made an annoyng sound when dragging. Also the projector kind of looks blurry.
I want one!!!

Thanks very much for this video. Only after watching it have I managed to find out why I hate my Samsung Omnia so much.
So the touch screen is a resistance screen rather than a capacitance screen as in the iPhone. That would explain why it is so difficult to use. The apps are pretty shoddy as well. You have to have a proprietary set of headphones etc.
Even if it had a projector, I'm not sure how often I would want to use it.
Just goes to show, you can have as much technology as you like. But you've still got to put it together into a package that works properly.

The rise of computers have made a distinguished number of equipments seemed ancient fashioned as of today. But there are those that are seen as ancient fashioned , yet still valuable . One of which is the projector . In presenting topics in seminars , many still rely on it to render outstanding quality images to their audience . The projector is the answer to the suitability problem when trying to convince a large number of audience. But because of their ancient versions, they are seen by most as out of fashion or obsolete . In reality, they are not. Their features is still what businessmen and presenters are looking for. So to render a fantastic deal of development on the projectors an innovation was made. And this innovation led to the birth of the mini projectors also known as the mini projector, pocket projector, portable projector, or pico projector . Haven’t heard of them yet ? They are the light and simple to carry version of the ancient heavy projectors. And they do have enhanced functions aside from portability that makes them in fashion.
