Toshiba TDP-FF1AU DLP Palm Sized Projector

Portable projectors are gaining momentum, and how. Toshiba unveiled its latest addition, the TDP-FF1AU mobile projector. With a rated brightness of 400 lux, there's no compromise on quality with this tiny performer.

The Toshiba TDP-FF1AU weighs just 1.1 pounds and has a 1500:1 high contrast ratio. No more messy electrical cords for this one: it runs happily on a battery, and there are no delays due to warm-up or cooling. The projector offers native SVGA 800x600 pixel resolution. With energy-efficient LEDs driving the light source, you save on battery as well.

Input terminals on the TDP-FF1AU include RGB, composite, USB and stereo mini jack. It offers manual keystone-correction (vertical +/- 16°), as well as HDTV/DTV compatibility. The included battery lasts for 2 hours on a full charge, and it can be recharged in about 3.5 hours.

Priced at US $699, the Toshiba TDP-FF1AU is a boon to mobile presenters. Package includes remote control, 23" folding screen, AC adapter, manual and soft carrying bag. Specs in the extended entry.
