<\/a>I’m still not sold on pico-projectors<\/a>, but obviously that fact hasn’t stopped companies from continuing to make them. I even saw one on a cellphone<\/a> in a commercial once—they’re so mainstream, man! And now Favi has two more:<\/p>\n

Who? Right. Favi’s a first-timer around here. Anyway, they have two new additions to the pico-projector space: The RIOLED-Q<\/a> and the RIOLED-V<\/a>, two distinct little things that focus on business use (the former) and Linux\/web apps (the latter.)<\/p>\n

In the former’s case, “business” translates into a bright, 2-speaker-sporting pico-projector with A\/V, VGA and USB connections. There’s memory built in, although it’s not said how much, and the form factor is small (note the pen), which is no surprise.<\/p>\n

The RIOLED-V is actually a netbook slash projector, featuring Linux, web apps (YouTube, Flickr and a few other ubiquitous ones like weather and email were mentioned) and wi-fi. It kind of reminded me of that MSI projector PC<\/a> the CES guys spotted out in Vegas this week, albeit a smaller, half-baked version that does not look anything like a small space ship with 1080p.<\/p>\n

Both projectors are due out in February or early March. Maybe I’ll come around on the whole pico-projector category by then. [Pico-Projector Info<\/a>]<\/p>\n
