Forever Plus finally takes a pico projector to 720p

Well, would you look at that! It's not 3M, Dell, Toshiba or any other mega-corp taking the totally tired pico projector from lackluster to 720p -- oh no, it's, um, Forever Plus. Said beamer has been around the block a time or two, but given the native 1,280 x 768 native resolution, we couldn't help but take notice. Reportedly, the 0.49- x 0.59- x 0.19-inch box outputs via HDMI and packs a lamp life of 30,000 hours, but we definitely have serious doubts about the quality. And the actual availability, for that matter.

Those dimensions seem a little more pico than is possible.... Are you sure they are in inches? Seems smaller than a sugar cube...

Yeah guys, whoa. Those dimensions are a little off. The article says 12.5cmx15cmx5cm.

Off by a factor of 10 in each dimension.... so you presented this device as *literally* 1000 times smaller than it really is.

It's still small, but let's get the decimal point in the right place!

30,000 hour lamp life? That's how you know they are full of it.
