Pocket Projector - Wow Your Audience

I love this new gadget and very nearly forked out some hard earned cash on a wintery Saturday before I came to my senses. Its a tiny pocket beamer that allows you to show Powerpoint presentations, photos, movies, whatever you wish - up to a 42 inch image on any surface. No more carry around bulky beamers and worrying if the bulb will go just when you launch into that great sales presentation to your boss. It comes with a stand and SD card slot, and can connect to PCs or even to your mobile phone. A really nice touch is that it runs an LED light source so last much much longer than the standard beamer bulbs. The company is called Aiptek. The handy tool is called Pocketcinema and costs approx. USD 300. In the next 12 months I can see this becoming essential kit for any instructor or presenter who is regularly on the road and wants to travel light. The cool factor is high and you may get people turning up at your presentation just to view your amazing projector. Its already on my Christmas list.
