Projector phones were supposed to be “the next big thing” in the evolution of cell phones. So far, that hasn’t been the case, there was a non-Android based projector phone released here in the US recently. Needless to say it didn’t do so well as far as sales goes. I personally haven’t seen one in the wild since it was released. Can Samsung break this technology into the mainstream with the Galaxy Beam?

Sorry for the picture below but it’s the best we have at the moment. For most, this is a welcome change from all the tablet and slate talk.

This is a 10-inch netbook that was originally going to ship with Windows 7 now it’s going to be preload with Android.
