I guess my point with the Beam is, why isn't the projection a peripheral? Seriously, how often are you going to need to use a projection feature from your phone? Something like this (http://www.flash-memory-store.com/hand-held-iphone4-4s-dlp-p...) for the iPhone seems reasonable if that feature is a must-have for you.
It seems quite likely that Samsung is going to use "Tab" for it's low end tablets and "Note" for its high end tablets.
As for Beam, it's a niche product, and has a place. A very few people will buy it and be happy that it exists, and the rest of us can safely ignore it. Large companies can successfully address both volume and niche markets simultaneously without shortchanging the niche or diluting the volume markets, although this is a very difficult task and most companies who try, fail.
