3M Announces three new pico-projectorsUpdate: We now have more information on the Shoot 'n Share, see below. 3M has just announced 3 new pico-projectors: The 3M MP160, MP180 and the Shoot `n Share. The MP180 are larger than 3M previous pico-projectors (and double in weight) - but the feature set is impressive: 30 lumens, SVGA resolution, built-in media player (4GB), a touch display, Wi-Fi and bluetooth and a web-browser. The MP160 is a little smaller and does not include the built-in media player and wireless connectivity (it's a stand-alone projector). The Shoot `n Share is an HD (8mp sensor, 720p) camcorder with an embedded pico-projector (LcOs, 640x480, 15 lumens. It records video to an SD card, and it also has a 2.4" display. It looks just like the Aiptek Z20 pocket cinema, and has pretty much the same features (although the Z20 offers 2GB of internal memory and a micro-SD slot and not an SD slot). Unfortunately, we don't have more information about it yet... All three should go on sale early October. The MP180 will cost $399, the MP160 will cost $349 and the Shoot 'n Share will go for $299.
