What doesn't 3M make?

It's a great start but until you can get a medium size screen...

They're neat....I could see them as a useful feature in business model laptops...but I'm curious about the lumens (brightness). Even the smaller portable model lcd projectors sometimes struggle with brightness. They're not known for being rugged either, that bulb is ultra fragile during cooldown period.

Huh? It can project up to almost 50". Isn't that big enough for a 2" chipset?
