If you're after a projector that fits into your pocket as easily as an iPhone, this is well worth considering.

Optoma Pico Pocket Projector PK201 review

 

The PK201 comes with several input methods, including Composite, VGA and Mini HDMI, enabling you to use content from products ranging from an iPhone (with a non-supplied adapter) to a TV or games system. In addition you can simply pop in an microSD...

The display stretches to a massive 70”, with WVGA resolution, theoretically enabling the device to be used as a portable cinema system. However in practice we found the image is not bright enough to work at that size.

Not bright enough to be useful

 

While it's very light weight and full of features, the bulb is not bright enough to be useful.

Road Warriors Must Have Tool
