Exciting
Hello,
I've been watching your postings for a while, waiting for an XGA projector to become available. I figured they were still a year away, so this is very exciting. The brightness (110 lumens!) alone is impressive compared to the 3M MP180, for example, at a lowly 30 lumens. It's size is a bit of a detractor - over 2.5 times bigger than the MP180, and the deal-breaker for me is the reliance on an external power supply (i.e., no power over USB). I hope the folks at Aaxa send you one of these to review; I'd love to hear your thoughts on it.
Cheers,
Shawn.
Interesting
This sounds like one of the first, for the general public, usable pico projector. A high light output, and a resolution that is near HD-Ready.
If only they would be able to bring the resolution to full 720p, then I would easily be a great alternative for watching movies.
Notice that the M2 is not
Notice that the M2 is not really a "pico-projector" - it's bigger that most pico-projectors and does not include a battery.
True
Even though it have a remote control (which reflects on overall size)
I have seen and used other pico projectors that are smaller in size, and have plenty more features like the Logiplayer
