The most important publications were Optoma’s PK101, 3M MPro 110, Dell “whatever was. 3M has recently updated its pico MPro of 120, whicxh will see a review for you soon, and now Optoma has improved its offer and reaffirmed its veersion as well.
The new PK102 has some seriuos improvements. The contrast ratio was doubled, for one thing, 2000:1. Wery nice. But the big move, it is now 4 GB on-board menmory and an on-screen menu, with which they navigate. This is cetrtainly big enouugh for a few episodes of this or that, or a coule of shots.
This solvees the problem, in order to take something for the output through the projector, its usefulness somewhat diminished. The result is a cretain edge over the MPro 120, but I could see them side by side to see whether the picture is better on one.
