This is what I've been begging companies to do for many years. A front-laser projector! Now if they're smart, they'll: 1. Make it with a very short throw (say, 12-24 inches.) Yes, it will require a serious keystone correction to the image, but with such a short throw, there's very little chance someone would accidentally look directly into the projector. (And since it's lasers, there's no lenses!) 2. Make it project an HD image onto a 6 foot wide screen. 1080p is an absolute must! 3. Make it with enough brightness so that the image can be seen in an moderately-lit room. It's lasers! It should be very easy to make it really bright! Who ever manages to create such a device will own the home-theater projector market! p.s. Serkan: Could you email me when you find more info on this, please? Please, please, please? Yes, yes!
