When you want a big video picture and you don’t have the big bucks for a big screen, BenQ hopes you’ll consider its Joybee GP1
mini projector. The $500 1.4-pound pico projector uses a 20,000-hour
LED lamp for illumination, and includes a USB port. Put your media
(movies, photos, business presentations) on a thumb drive and you can
leave your laptop at home.

The tiny unit comes with a carrying case, but you have to carry the
separate, equally sized power supply by itself. Fortunately, the GP1
really can be set up without reading a manual. It took me about five
minutes to connect the cords and figure out the commands on the
wafer-sized remote. Click gadgetwise.blogs.nytimes.com for the whole story.
