LG will soon show off its newest device: The Optimus 3D. It's a smartphone with a nice assortment of connectivity options such as HDMI and DLNA, a glasses-free 3D display, and a built-in dual-lens 3D camera. What the hell, LG?
Either this device will be all sorts of awesome—a built-in 3D camera does sound fun—or it will be the worst horror unleashed onto the tech world in recent memory.
I can't wait to see it.

LG confirms Optimus 3D for MWC 2011: glasses-free screen and 3D camera
By Ross Miller posted Jan 31st 2011 9:37PM
We've had a feeling that LG was going to tackle 3D smartphones heads-on sometime in February, and after a spat of rumors today purported to be showing off the Optimus 3D (pictured above, via Phandroid), the company's flat-out confirmed its Mobile World Congress debut. The Optimus 3D sports a dual-lens 3D camera, a glasses-free LCD display, and HDMI / DLNA for sharing on whatever 3D sets you have. A live demo will be at Barcelona, but whether that means we'll get to hold it in our own hands. Other specs? We'll have to wait and find out. Press release after the break.

I love the way, in the photo there is no network connectivity... That's pretty common with my android phone.

Something like this:
http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/29/germ ... projector/
Reading the article, it says there are 45 200*200 pixel projectors in it... I guess that's 9*5, giving a resolution of 1800*1000 pixels... At that size, it would be fantastic for playing with for HMDs!!!

i dunno if that pico IQ is any good .
pico DLP:
Thers a problem , native contrast is severely limited because of the physical size of the device.
scanning laser:
best native contrast, enough brightness will be problematic because fast switching laser restrictions or something...
Obviously for me the best would be a large, silent scanning laser with 400 lumens............. that's sure not handheld
For HMD, scanning laser is best.
FullHD is coming next year by microvision...

3D phone with 3D camera, very cool. Personally I am not sure this will be necessary since I plan on getting the Nintendo 3DS (which will probably have better 3D games anyway). Having a pocket sized 3D camera would be pretty cool though.

True, but the 3DS only does photos, this does video recording as well. And the 3DS is only 640x480, most decent phone cameras are at least 5mp these days, with a lot of these new superphones packing 8mp.

Yes, that is true. I guess I'm just trying to convince myself I don't need this 3D phone seeing as I just bought an Android phone last week (on 2 year contract).
