The Panasonic PT-LB20U is one of the new breed of 2000 lumen sub-5 pound LCD projectors. It not only has a competent feature set, and produces a bright image, but for months it has been the lowest priced LCD projector in its class, typically selling for for around $1300 or so, online, before what seems to be a permanent $200 mail in rebate. As a result, the Panasonic LB20u portable projector picks up a Projector Reviews Hot Product Award - for price performance, in the sub-5 lb class of XGA projectors. I should point out, again, that the LB20NTU, the networking version, offers the same specifications plus networking, for a few hundred more. To learn about the wireless networking capabilities of the LB20NTU, click to link to the LB30NTU projector review. They share the same networking features. As a result, the Panasonic LB20U projector gets to share it's Hot Product Award with the even more versatile LB20NTU.
Bottom Line: Panasonic's LB20U and LB20NTU projectors are excellent, and affordable choices for the highly mobile presenter, yet, with their light weight, 2000 lumens and Daylight view, they are just as comfortable moving between rooms at your corporate offices. The feature set and benefits are downright impressive for such small and light projectors
