If you were to purchase this because you were a business minded road warrior, and it helped you score more contracts/deals/money. Then would that not be an investment in much the same way businesses invest time and money in their employees/printers/ink/rent/etc. to receive dividends? If an item is purchased for personal use (ie. watching movies, video games, etc.) then it can not be considered an investment. If it is purchased with the 'for profit' intent (business deals, presentations, et al) then it can be termed an investment. You are investing some money in the hopes that you will be able to get a return greater than the original investment. As to whether it is a sound investment or not, I saw only video capabilities there, not audio. I would call it firm (it isn't squishy by any means), or hot (as that lamp gets a little warm I am sure), maybe even bright (although the lighting seemed dimmed whenever the projector turned on.)]]>Aug 28th 2009 3:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/3m-debuts-mpro-120-pocket-projector-and-awesome-ad-simultaneousl/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/3m-debuts-mpro-120-pocket-projector-and-awesome-ad-simultaneousl/

Scene opens, revealing a standard office projector in its giant leather carrying case beside the Pocket Projector.

Voice over: You're responsible for bringing the projector, and it's a long walk to the next meeting. Your choice.

As for the device... While "pocket" seems to stretch the definition a bit, it is a nice, compact size. Wouldn't it be cool if the really good projectors shrunk down to this form factor?

But given that it isn't in the truly "nano" category, the specs seem just a bit on the weak side.

My other burning question about such devices: will someone devise a pocket screen?]]>Aug 28th 2009 11:42AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/3m-debuts-mpro-120-pocket-projector-and-awesome-ad-simultaneousl/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/3m-debuts-mpro-120-pocket-projector-and-awesome-ad-simultaneousl/Aug 28th 2009 11:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/3m-debuts-mpro-120-pocket-projector-and-awesome-ad-simultaneousl/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/3m-debuts-mpro-120-pocket-projector-and-awesome-ad-simultaneousl/Aug 28th 2009 11:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/3m-debuts-mpro-120-pocket-projector-and-awesome-ad-simultaneousl/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/3m-debuts-mpro-120-pocket-projector-and-awesome-ad-simultaneousl/Aug 28th 2009 12:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/3m-debuts-mpro-120-pocket-projector-and-awesome-ad-simultaneousl/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/3m-debuts-mpro-120-pocket-projector-and-awesome-ad-simultaneousl/Aug 28th 2009 1:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/3m-debuts-mpro-120-pocket-projector-and-awesome-ad-simultaneousl/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/3m-debuts-mpro-120-pocket-projector-and-awesome-ad-simultaneousl/http://www.personalprojectors.co.uk/catalog/product_info.php/products_id/29#3m ]]>Aug 28th 2009 1:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/3m-debuts-mpro-120-pocket-projector-and-awesome-ad-simultaneousl/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/3m-debuts-mpro-120-pocket-projector-and-awesome-ad-simultaneousl/Aug 28th 2009 1:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/3m-debuts-mpro-120-pocket-projector-and-awesome-ad-simultaneousl/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/3m-debuts-mpro-120-pocket-projector-and-awesome-ad-simultaneousl/Aug 28th 2009 1:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/3m-debuts-mpro-120-pocket-projector-and-awesome-ad-simultaneousl/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/3m-debuts-mpro-120-pocket-projector-and-awesome-ad-simultaneousl/Aug 28th 2009 2:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/3m-debuts-mpro-120-pocket-projector-and-awesome-ad-simultaneousl/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/3m-debuts-mpro-120-pocket-projector-and-awesome-ad-simultaneousl/Aug 28th 2009 2:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/3m-debuts-mpro-120-pocket-projector-and-awesome-ad-simultaneousl/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/3m-debuts-mpro-120-pocket-projector-and-awesome-ad-simultaneousl/
