Pre-orders for the Beambox Evolution R-1 pico-projector are now being taken, with deliveries expected to begin on April 1st.  The Evolution R-1 is capable of projecting a 100-inch image at up to 640 x 480 resolution, and has both 1GB onboard memory and a microSD card slot for loading more content.

What separates the R-1 from other pico-projectors is the brightness: at 30 lumens, it’s twice as bright as some rivals.  Contrast is 200:1 while ports include mini-USB, AV-in and a 3.5mm headphone jack (there’s also a 1W onboard speaker); a rechargeable battery is good for 90 minutes wire-free use.
