Texas Instruments have confirmed that cell phones with mobile projectors within will be released later that year, and apparently there is a belief that such handsets will be as popular as camera phones today within five to ten years from now. I suppose that is a pretty safe estimate, but one main thing such cell phones will have to look out for is the problem of battery life. After all, projectors do consume a whole lot of potential, and

they let out plenty of heat as well. Hopefully fuel cell technology will be able to cater for such devices in the near future, while engineers get to work on an efficient cooling solution. Wouldn’t want your pants to catch fire and risk being called a liar now, eh?
