When you want a big video picture and you don't have a big price for the big screen, BenQ hopes you will consider its Joybee GP1 mini projector. The $500 1. 4-
One catty micro projector with 20,000-
Hourly LED lights for lighting, including USB ports.
Put your media (
Movies, photos, business presentations)
On the thumb drive you can leave your laptop at home.
This small unit comes with a suitcase, but you have to carry a separate power supply of the same size on your own.
Fortunately, GP1 can really be set up without reading the manual.
It took me about five minutes to connect the wires and work out the commands on the chipsized remote.
You can connect the camera, DVD player, TV, video game console or
The cost of Joybee's iPod.
But if you want to watch the video, you must first convert your files to AVI format using the included Mac and Windows software.
The company claims that projectors can make images up to 80 inch in diameter, but don't expect this size to appear during the day.
Even in a dimly lit room, the faint light output means that I have to put this device close to the wall to see the bright-enough image.
Joybee is missing optical zoom as a pico projector, which means you have to move the whole unit to change the picture size.
This may not be practical in a business environment, but if you plan to watch a movie in a hotel room with all the lights out, it may not be a big deal.
The color is good once set
Saturated, acceptable black content.
The menu is intuitive and the remote is working fine but on
The unit touch control is unstable and usually does not respond to multiple hard presses and then starts with a very light tap.
You may not want to rely on this projector in a PowerPoint presentation, but as a low
The cost way to take a big picture in a dark room, it can do that.

"It is for this reason that it is so ridiculous that Apple refuses to put a card slot on the iPhone.
If they have one, presumably the microSDHC card can pop up and put it into one of the many readers that convert these cards to USB drives (
Like the one on my keychain)
Then insert it into the projector.
There is no extra dock to buy or carry etc.
I do forget to criticize the choice of AVI as a container format, though.
AVI is on the way out.
This should support H.
264/AVC out of the box. Eric —
How about this projector compared to a similar size projector that Dell recently launched? ?
This area requires more perspective, such as comparison with other areas.
For example, these models of projectors are already very small and cheap, so why buy this one?
Noy, a replacement using LED, is brighter. ?

If Apple has only one SD slot, they can sell more ipod . . . . . . This is the only thing that keeps them from going mainstream . . . . . . For example, man, how much lumens does this puppy push?
Kenny, you're explaining why you chose your username.
I never said how popular the iPod is.
This actually has nothing to do with my post about IPHONE).
American Idol is very popular.
This is not good! 1.
4 pounds bigger than any other pico projector-
If it needs an equal
The word Pico is ridiculous.
Lumens are a necessary criterion for judging the value of any projector, especially a projector that costs almost twice as much as a real pico projector.
Can someone tell me why they don't use multiple LEDslights?
For example, if they have four LEDs-
A light, should that photo be brighter? 100 Lumens?
Are you kidding? Worthless!
I agree it's worthless!
It's not only much easier to bring your computer (
You will have everything you need, not just movies or pictures, but your files and iTunes or any provider that allows you to rent movies online)
But having it convert to AVI first will only give you an extra file on your main drive (
Obviously you just copy the AVI to a USB drive).
Why take this little projector with the same siced power supply when the laptop is more stylish.
It's just one of the things we can really do without them thinking about it!
The PS3 has good backward compatibility with PS2 games . . . . . . Why compare the projector to the computer?
They are two products for different purposes.
Like a media player, it's great in the market.
On the other hand, the laptop can have a built-in
But will the projector turn into a computer?
Speaking of lumens, I think we are being misled by the traditional mercury lamp projector of 2000 or 3000 lumens.
The LED projector lumens the brightness of the video, not the brightness of the lighting. For a 24W 3-
LED lighting, it can get 60 lumens Video like iSival's MP720B1.
But for a 243 W mercury lamp projector that claims an image brightness of 3000 lumens.
Do you really believe that 10 times the power consumption can produce 50 times the brightness for mercury bulbs?
Or is LED only 20% more efficient than mercury bulbs?
In addition, the human eye has a large range of adaptation, and you will feel that the 100 lumens LED projector is bright enough to enjoy movies, play games, etc.
I will upload a video clip to show the video quality of my MP720B1.
Similar to contrast.
Traditional projectors are generally dynamic, not static.
For the average person, the static ratio of 400: 1 is enough.
