Anybody have recommendations on a mini projector for business presentations?  One that could be connected via a laptop or tablet.

Thanks for any feedback!

Hi Charles,

Try the AAXA P4-X Pico projector, pocket size and good price ($349.99). Here's a review.

Cheers,

Charles,

I would tell you that about two years ago I got an Epson EX71. While it is a little pricey, it is a gem of a projector and has every cable type except Thunderbolt (not sure on USB 3). 
I would also offer an opinion re the cost and another way to do things if you do not need to get large in your projection area (we have a conference area with screen that seats about 100 so that helps to be able to go large): For almost all other presentations we have gone to an LCD TV and bluetooth to our laptops (you could easily use a cable too). We use a 32 inch Westinghouse as it is very inexpensive, so if dropped or broken we are only out a few hundred dollars. It is not heavy and if you put into any kind of larger satchel with strap, anyone can carry it.
It is easier to set up and we can use it for booths, offices, etc. I like having both in the event we need them, but if I was doing smaller group presentations, I would go with tv and laptop because it is easier, no lamps running to cool, etc.

Hope it helps, good and different question too!

Robert

For using the tv route like you mentioned, the new chromecast by google looks like it could be a viable idea for pretty cheap. I don't know if I understand correctly, but from what i get you can mirror your laptop on a tv wirelessly and use your phone to control it.

We use a 3m Mobile Projector MP410. It's a bright pictures, easy to use, doesn't get to hot, can connect to virtually anything and small (we paid about $450).

We almost pulled the trigger on the Epson EX71 as well, but decided on the 3m because of the price.

Came here to say this. If you load your presentation to Drive you're in full control and only need to take the stick and your phone! SICK!

It's like an HDMI usb stick. HDMI doesn't conduct power so you have to charge them and for the $35 it's cheap enough to throw away if you don't dig it. Along with power it requires a TV so not perfect for your answer but I'd carry one everywhere. (and will by next week)
