First Mobile Phone With Projector Makes an Appearance

28 Aug, 2008, 9:00 am IST | Shayne Rana | Mobile phones

I’ve been looking forward to 'seeing' what the first mobile phone with an integrated projector would be like ever since I first heard about this technology being in the works. Personally I didn’t expect it to be out so soon, but I'm not complaining. The handset in question is called the Epoq EGP-PP01.

This Tri-band GSM handset has the capability of projecting images as large as 30 inches (diagonal). The resolution of the projector is 640 x 480 pixels. Not only can it project images that are on the phone but DVD players or other media devices (including Laptops) with TV out features can be hooked up to the handset.

The handset comes with a 2.4-inch TFT LCD with a 240 x 320 pixel resolution. It supports GPRS and WAP, has a 1.3MP camera, supports Bluetooth with A2DP and USB and has a sound recorder. From the looks of the images floating around it seems like the handset runs on a UI similar to Apple’s iPhone.

The Epoq EGP-PP01 is priced at $549.95 on GadgetCraver. Perhaps it’ll make it here too. When... is of course the big question.
