Projectors used to be clunky devices that were so large they had to be wheeled around. You had to always carry a bunch of adapters and accessories. On top of that, they would only work in a darkened room. Boy, have times changed! The new Epson PowerLite Presenter is light and portable. It includes just about everything you need, even speakers and a DVD player. And it puts out 2,500 lumens so it can be used just about anywhere. We were excited to take a look.

The Epson PowerLite Presenter comes in an unassuming cardboard box, as shown in Figure 1.
