4.0 out of 5 stars best value..., October 20, 2009
I've done some research before I purchased the Pearl M3. My final desition was made after comparison with Optoma 101, AAXA P1, and 3M MPRO120.

Pros:
1, wide screen (16:9), all the others have a 4:3
2, long battery life (finish a movie (1hr43min) on it). Since there were a lot complaints about the battery life on the other 3 projectors. I paid a lot attention and find out 2500mAh is the highest. The other three has either 1100mAh or 1700mAh...
3, 2G on board flash memory + microSD card reader. Play movie smoothly on the internal hard drive. I also use it for data storage.
4, Project with my Iphone 3GS. (extra cost on cable from Apple)
4, Japanese langague supported.
5, free & fast shipping

Surprise:
1, internal speaker. The product description didn't mention it has a speaker. But it do has one!!
2, free tripod (which also didn't mention in the product description). VERY NICE! I used it to project the movie on my roof. Plus, my SONY T77 can use it too.

Cons:
1, I need to manual focus every time. (Then I found out all the others also need manual focus, so, not really a con. But definitely need to be improved)
2, It says compatible with iphone. But it didn't mention that I need purchase extra cable (cost me 50 in Apple store).

The brightness is an issue. 12 lumens need a medium dark environment; or for best effect, it need a complete darkness (like the environment you watch movie in the cinema). For business use, a minimum 100+ lumens' brigtness is recommended. So far, only DELL M109S can reach the standard. But the DELL M109S is DLP projector, you need pay extra money for bulb after thousands hours' usage. That's another story.

All in all, I am happy with my purchase. It's the best value for me.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't buy this.., October 28, 2009
In the photo this projector looks nice, specs look good, but it's made of cheap plastic, very unprofessional finish, and worst of all, it crashes too much when you play internal videos (if you think you can copy a DivX or Xvid and use this as personal cinema you won't be able to see the whole movie, it will crash after 2 or 3 minutes)

If you use it only as a projector maybe it would work for you, but I would strongly recommend a projector from a better known brand, I won't buy again anything from FPS.
