First projector equipped Android to ship next week

The Samsung Galaxy Beam is about to launch next week. The handset will be available to StarHub subscribers in Singapore July 17th with other destinations in Asia and Europe getting the model later this year. Will this phone eventually be offered by a carrier in the States? It's possible, but so far there is no word about the phone "beaming down" to U.S. cellphone users. With a 3.7 inch AMOLED screen, Android 2.1 and an 8MP camera, the phone has many of the same specs that we have seen on higher end Android models. The TI Pico Projector allows you to project your pictures, the web, or streaming video. While the LG Expo recently offered support for a snap-on Pico Projector on it's AT&T branded unit, the Beam is the first smartphone to have its own pico projector built-in. No pricing for the phone has been revealed.
