I'm looking into a multimedia projector, and it seems the Panasonic units have the better reviews in the lower price
brackets.
As for portables, Im not sure, how heavy, is 5lbs too heavy? What about lighting, room settings etc.
Panasonic has a small 3lb 1500 lumen unit http://www.projectorreviews.com/pana...ions-id829.php


Cheers

Got an Acer which works OK, but it's clearly not the best performance
unit around - fairly light/portable, included a well designed case for
it and all the cables, but dim as compared to the 3X size/4X price
(non-portable, unless you have porters, Mr. NewHip) units in use
elsewhere here. Budget driven, and on that basis OK - but also a few
years old, so probably not closely related to this week's options.

If you can find a store which has the darn things in stock to try out,
that would be best, even if it's a few bucks more than ordering it from
far away.

It's obviously well-made. The little birdies are embroidered.

Sno-o-o-ort!

My purchase decision WAS partly based on really good performance of
the two VA912b monitors I bought last Spring.

You've left it out on the desk for what? A cat hair tolerance test?
