Oh. You mean put it in yourself. <g>

Sorry, I misread your post. I don't know of anyone. I always thought that was a tough sell; it requires too much tinkering on the part of the user. Better to optimize the design for digital images and forget about slides. It's probably a whole lot more profitable to sell the whole unit than a retrofit gadget. InFocus is getting $2,499 for their 'budget' conference room projector, the LP340B; there's room for some profit in there.

Another of Kopin's initial generation of [SMART SLIDE] products for the business and entertainment market is the PocketPro&#153;. This product is a one-pound portable presentation system that connects with an ordinary 35 millimeter slide projector to display video, data and graphics at video-rate speeds. The PocketPro uses the slide projector's light source and optics to project images generated by any personal computer onto a large screen with superb color and brightness at VGA resolution


Seems like a long time ago. Seven years. It was a long time ago! Will
