Dell finally reveals $499 M109S SVGA pocket projector

We've been waiting ever patiently for this to get official, and at long last, that Project Projector we saw leaked in July has been revealed. Formally christened the M109S, this 0.8-pound beamer arrives with a native 858 x 600 resolution, a projection distance of up to 94.5-inches and a mercury-free LED light source that lasts up to four years. Moreover, it packs the ability to suck power from a Latitude or Vostro AC adapter if you're caught in a pinch, and yes, it's available today for $499 in the United States. As for the rest of the world, you wait.

It's just short of 720p. I'd buy a $499 720p widescreen projector in a heartbeat. It can't be that expensive to make 'em.

720P? maybe in 4:3 and even then it can only do '600p'.
16:9 is nowhere close: 1280x720 is 720P.

This is only SVGA, but it's better than DVD (720x480).
Bottom line it will look sharp for non-HD material,
just dim the lights.
