If portability is an issue, you should check out (surprisingly) IBM's
MicroPortable.

That probably wraps, so cut and paste it. I've seen it in action and lust
after it.
3 pounds. -- not much bigger than a hardback book.
XGA (1024x768)
1100 lumens
It has a USB connection to the PC to control a slide presentation with the
included remote. Even includes keystone correction, which is unusualy in
the ultraportables.
$4200.
I first saw it an an IBM event and they were using it in a pretty bright
demo area. The brightness startled me.
