Philips PicoPix Preview

So, you've just rocked up to a friends house to play the latest couch multiplayer smash hit GoldenEye 007, only to realise they've got a 15” television, which makes hitting the one person who picks Oddjob even more difficult because he’s now only two pixels tall. Enter the PicoPix, a small, lightweight pocket projector that you can easily take with you wherever you go. Given the ability to project up to a 120” screen no longer will you have to squint at a tiny television!

With a built in MP4 media player, you can also plug in a USB stick and watch your TV shows and movies. But that’s not all! You can explain your “Ken Flowchart” presentation to anyone without the need to hook it up to a PC, as it will also read documents from the USB stick with it’s built in document viewer. It’s also affordable for the masses thanks to its £229.99 RRP.

Visit the Philips website for more information regarding the Philips PicoPix.

The one pictured has a native resolution of 854 x 480 pixels, so it's not HD unfortunately. However, it is "HD Ready" - in that it can take a HD stream and downscale it to it's native resolution instead.
