iJector Projector with iPod/iPhone Dock [Docking Projector Fails to Impress]

We’ve featured many an iPod/iPhone friendly projector here on TFTS and, in the main, we’ve been somewhat muted in our enthusiasm – except in the case of the QingBar MP101 and, of course, the fabulous(ly expensive) R2D2 Projector – but perhaps this newly announced iJector Projector with integrated iPod/iPhone Dock could buck the trend?

The short answer to the above question is ‘no’ (there, if you’re in a rush there’s no need to read the rest of this post now). For those of you who want us to qualify why the iJector iPod/iPhone friendly projector don’t impress me/us much (there’s a song there, someplace) we’ll happily do so with the following sentence.

The iJector iPod/iPhone friendly projector’s image is of less (yes, less) resolution than the image on your iPod Touch/iPhone’s display.

Disappointing, certainly, but not withstanding this small matter – that being its laudably pathetic 557 x 234 resolution – the iJector projector almost has a great deal going for it as it’ll happily pump out amplified stereo sound, it’ll project images up to a diagonal size of 50″ with adequate brightness and its even a genuine ‘Made for iPod’ certified device (meaning Apple profit).

So far so so-so (to coin a terrible phrase that’ll probably serve as a good EuroPop song title sometime in the future). But where the iJector iPod/iPhone friendly projector really outdoes itself in terms of coming across as eminently forgettable is in its pricing – the iJector will hit the Japanese market next month for the equivalent of $670.

Forgotten it already, haven’t you? Yup, thought so.
