Ok you guys gotta admit that a wireless projector is pretty badass!!

"With the incorporation of 802.11b technology, the WiFi-certified PowerLite 735c offers extreme portability and the power to project on up to four projectors simultaneously via a network or simply one standalone PC. Using the projector's "ad hoc" mode, users can easily transmit PowerPoint presentation data from their PC (using a wireless LAN card) directly to the projector with virtually no signal delays, including high-speed, animated slide transitions. Using an "infrastructure" mode, users can control the projector wirelessly over an organization's LAN system, which also enables IS managers from remote locations to check the projector's status, monitor lamp use, control power and even change video sources. The EPSON PowerLite 735c meets WEP-compliancy (Wireless Encryption Packet) standards for increased security and features safeguards that protect the display screen from interruptions."

It is about damn time they started putting wireless cards into projectors. Bluetooth sucks ass because of its range. This is what everyone has been waiting for !

Your subject says wireless printer, but I think you meant wireless projector. ;-)

Anyway, this is very cool. I can't tell you how nice this would have been at my last company! We used our projector A LOT, and it was always such a pain to have to deal with all the wires. This would have made my life much easier!

I fixed the title, good catch. I always think of Epson as a printer company so I accidently typed in printer. I think that a wireless projector is a very very unieuq product. I wonder if any other manufacturers are building similar products?

I would certainly think that Infocus is on the ball with this one. They usually seem to be at the forefront of projector technology.

Almost done with my review of wireless projectors. I have been looking primarly at a NEC model, but this Epson looks interesting also.
