Pocket projector for laptop

Hi, My Aiptek T20 has just died and I need a new small projector to use on my Sony Vaio, I only use it for still images and am looking for the best price for a projector that can replace the above.

All suggestions would be much appreciated :)

  • Just a thought but my Aiptek is actually working just not projecting the picture properly, its red orange and black if I move the bulb unit up and down I can see a bit more of the image but then it goes again, everything else is in working order, also I'm not sure if its installing properly, surley if it hadnt it woldnt work at all, my laptop tells me it has installed correctly but the projector is about 3 years old and I havent used it for a while so maybe the drivers need updating but cant find anything free when I google, just guessing really, any help would be great :)

    Windows 7 Driver is here

    Do you think that's the problem?
  • I found that earlier and cant get it to download gets stuck on 1%, I'm very non techie so have no idea if thats the issue just thought it may be after a bit of googleing.

    Nothing wrong with the link. Try here

    You can use WinRar to un-zip/un-Rar the file.
  • Thank you I've done that now and it made no diffference, the picture is flickering and looks like its melting and then goes black a bit like a kaleidoscope. I bought this as a recommendation on here a few years ago (different user name) from a cheaper version of Currys I think, any other ideas?
  • Or another idea, is there an app or gadget that would mean I can use my iphone as a projector for stills? that would be so handy.
  • Thank you for your help, I have now ordered a replacement product so no more replies needed.
