Wireless networking using plug in Wifi module
Control Pad allows many different devices to be plugged in conveniently despite the projector being too high to reach in most cases
Reasonable interactive help built in, including showing all the interactive tools!
10 watt speaker should handle most boardrooms, but there’s an audio out if needed to pump up the sound
Capture from sources to whiteboard or save, or print, before or after interactive annotation added
Lens and Pen sensor system are recessed
Impressively easy to use, despite the host of features
Great warranty

Some limitations using Mac DisplayPort/HDMI. You need to come out of the MacBook DisplayPort with a an adapter for VGA instead of HDMI to be able to use Screen Capture and Print functions. (HDMI works, just not the save/capture/print functions)
User Guide (manual) is on disk. If ever there was a projector where a hard copy manual would be helpful, thanks to the numerous features, this is it. Epson? Are you listening?
Be careful attaching the tabletop mount. It’s not easy, but possible to dent – warp an inexpensive lightweight whiteboard (as I did)
Control Pad could have a separate SD card slot
Menus are in the center of the screen, no option to move them to the sides
Lacks a microphone input
