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.
