Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Just picked this up as a gift for my Dad, pretty impressed, it will fit his needs for sure. At first I picked up the 3M CP40 which looks identical from the outside. But don't be fooled, the Viewsonic offers a bit more and for not much more. Key differences:
1. Viewsonic can project from a laptop via USB, 3M cannot.
2. Viewsonic comes with a remote, 3M does not.
Connecting to a device is simple, even from USB, just install the driver and it's ready to go. For another $14 if you buy from Amazon, definitely worth the difference. I haven't played too much with it but I wanted to test the features out so that I could help my Dad out in case he had questions. Projection comes out pretty clear although it plays video that you take with the device much smoother than if you project from a laptop. Tested with a DVD player, seems to play just fine.
Only con seems like if you do project a laptop from the USB, it seems to still run off battery power, would be nice if it kept the device charged while projecting (charges via USB while powered off, or when you uise it in Disk mode). You can however keep it charged projecting videos you took with it or whatever you connect using the composite cables. Overall pretty cool and I bet it will drop in price, dropped $40 or so since I first heard about it.
