"Snickering juvenile humor aside, the technology really is quite impressive. The tiny projector is capable of HVGA resolution (640×240 -- good enough to display a near-Standard Definition quality movie) so I suspect that the first intended application is ad-hoc projection for field use, such as in the military.
