Customer Rating:      Summary: Pretty cool little gadget Comment: This is really an impressive little gadget. Quite easy to use, just plug it in to charge, turn it on and attach a device. I attached my iPhone and watched videos through iTunes and YouTube quite easily. On a wall, on a ceiling. There really needs to be very little ambient lighting though. But when it's dark, really a pretty sharp picture for the size of the thing and its resolution. And I was especially impressed by the sound given the tiny size of the speaker.
My only complaint is a lack of documentation. The box came with a "quick start guide" which told you very little beyond how to charge it and a couple of other notes and one "sample" configuration. That's it, and there doesn't seem to be any more documentation online. But given how relatively easy to use it is, this is a minor quibble.
Customer Rating:      Summary: amazing when traveling Comment: Can't wait to get a monster huge projector one day for my future Home theatre room (don't we all think we will eventually have one?), but until then the coolest new gadget I recently bought is my Swivel. It's like a mini home theatre projector that I can put in my pocket. I travel a lot so now when I want to wind down in my hotel room, I no longer have to surf bad tv. I plug in my Ipod to my Swivel and watch movies projected on the ceiling. Very Cool. I also have been able to show friends some of my fave music videos while we are out in a bar or restaurant. People always ask me what's in my hand. The Swivel is my new favorite gadget to take everywhere.
Customer Rating:      Summary: I may never watch TV/movies normally again...sorry, Comcast Comment: I've dreamed of having a projector in my living room for a long time now - problem is, it continued to be a dream because I already have WAY too much stuff in my small, city apartment. I couldn't justify getting more bulky electronics to fill the little free space I have left.
I saw the Cinemin in Oprah Magazine earlier this month and I was immediately sold. It's like a DVD player you can carry around...in your pocket! I was stoked. For the last week or so, I have been enamored with this gadget's ability to make me more comfortable than I've ever been while watching anything on a screen. My boyfriend and I are adamant about our Dexter and Californication dates each week, but by the time we have come home from work, gone to the gym, eaten dinner, and showered, it's pretty late. These days, we actually get in bed, ready to sleep, and watch Dexter's evil schemes or Hank Moody's outlandish escapades play out on the ceiling above the bed as we fall asleep.
I don't think I've ever considered myself an early adopter, but this device is one that I had to snatch up the minute it was released. I'm an avid traveler, so the in-between times on a trip, on-board a train from city to city or mid-air crossing the Atlantic (and stuck with the latest horrendous Jennifer Aniston flick as our in-flight movie) are going to be wonderful times to use the Cinemin. I'm looking forward to it. :-)
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great for work and family Comment: I'm rarely the first to get anything but this thing is COOL. I'm a sucker for tiny form factors. Priced right for a new gadget (thought I could see it going lower in time--under $200 would be nice). We had been looking at buying a used LCD/DLP projector but with this, we got what we needed and more. We just got it yesterday and found it easy to use, reasonably easy to set up with the exception of hooking it up to our portable dvd player. We needed to jerry rig it into a M2M AV connection--the quick start guide doesn't cover this at all and we stole the cable from our tv to make it work. Haven't checked battery life but it's easily run off the ac adapter
That said, my 6 year old LOVED hanging out in our living room watching a movie both off my iphone and the portable dvd. She's already plotting her next sleep over. The picture quality is amazing--our display on the living room wall was probably about 4' x 7-8 feet and very clear given that the room was not completely dark. For a group, you might want to hook it up to external speakers (we hooked it up to our Bose SoundDock and it worked great) but when traveling or for a small group, the sound on the little device is fine. Great when you don't have to force 4 kids to crowd around a little dvd player.
For work, I can definitely see taking this to client sites when I need to do presentations. It's about the size of a digital camera even with the case and cables. Very light, compact. Comes with all the connectors you need for the most part including power adapters for int'l travel.
A clever gadget, especially for the $$. Would be fun if they produce them in different colors like the apple products.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great Toy Comment: I have had this gadget on back order since reading the rave reviews about it from this past year's CES convention. I am not normally an early adopter -- craziness in my book -- but in this case, I made the exception because I could imagine that the cinemin could have a role in my life and so far so good.
It's fairly idiot proof, which is a good thing. It's got a great picture that rivals that of my television, and the ability to watch from any surface is just really cool. I've been projected the image on my entire bedroom wall, and it's just awesome. Raymond Chandler would be proud. The cool bits are simply that you can take it from room to room, and also the swiveling head, which seems like a no-brainer once you've seen it, but it is for some reason the only one on the market with this feature.
I say - skip the new tv - buy yourself an I-Phone and a Cinemin and maybe a Slingbox and watch away.
