Microvision lets others sample its PicoP Laser Display Engine

We’re guessing that if you haven’t bought a pico projector by now it isn’t because they’re just too big, but Microvision is doing its part to help make ‘em smaller nonetheless.

No word on cost but we’re guessing there’s a discount if you buy in bulk, and shipping ought to be cheap.
