Most excellent projector. In constant use in medical surgeries and clinics for small group presentations on Parkinson's Disease subjects. Simple to use, light to carry, good display. Well recommended and will be purchasing a second unit for home use shortly. Alan W

I could not believe how compact this projector is. I lecture around the country and often carry my equipment with me. This projector is lightweight and yet has good resolution.
Amazingly small, high quality, but not so bright in a daylit room

This projector is absolutely fantastic. It's so small! Less than the size of a 6" ruler, square, and about half the height; it's hard to believe when you see it online. The picture makes it look like it's the same size as any other projector. The image that this little beast puts out is crisp and clear at 800x600. Great for business presentations, playing games from the Wii, or PC, or showing off home photos/videos. My negative point is that if you're in a sunlit room, the image is a little difficult to see. This is powered by LEDs (which gives it a 20,000 hour lamp life, over 10x that of a normal projector) and the result is it's not as bright as a 'typical' projector. That said, close the curtains, (or dim the lights if you're in a meeting), and it's more than adequate.
Seems like an alright device, just beware two things

Reviewer: Mr. Mark S. Penrice,
The spec looks fine for the price - resolution and contrast wise, etc, and it's certainly small and light - and if all goes well you'll make savings in excess of the purchase price on bulbs and electricity vs more conventional projectors; however!
1/ 100 lumens is quite dim. It's less than a third of the subjective brightness of a comparitive halogen lamp model (1500-2500 lumen). You'll definitely have to use this in a darkened room, and even then it might not seem particularly bright until your eyes adapt quite a lot.
2/ If the lightsource blows out, that's it. Normal bulbs are explicitly consumable items and typically come in quick-swap carriers that need less than a minute to change. Here, it's sealed-for-life. If/when it goes (and it might be long before the stated time, as this is still a bit experimental), it's either professional repair time or buying a whole new projector, which could nullify any saving and leave you without picture for quite a while.
(Still, if it does run for even half the stated time, it's still worth it!)
The question that can't be answered until someone actually buys and reviews one properly is what the picture quality is like besides the brightness...
