So after some searching around including this forum, I decided to give the AAXA P1jr pico projector a try. I ordered it directly from www.aaxatech.com and it was shipped the same day. After some more searching, I quickly realized that I couldn't connect the P1jr to a computer and the tech guys over at aaxatech pointed me to a VGA convertor box that I got off Amazon.
The P1jr comes with some basic accessories like tripod, ac adapter, rca adapter, and 3.5mm to 2.5mm adapter. It has an onboard media player that plays avi and mp4 videos from SD cards or USB sticks. How to use this projector is covered in the manual so I'll share my experience connecting it to a computer instead.

Here you can see the P1jr laid out next to the convertor box. The convertor box comes with USB powercord and RCA to 3.5mm cable. The VGA cable I had a spare laying around, but you'll need one yourself. |

Connecting the VGA convertor box to P1jr via RCA to 3.5mm to 2.5mm cables :P |

My laptop is setup for mirrored display so whatever is being shown on my laptop gets projected onto the wall, pretty cool for something that wasn't suppose to do this. |

And another shot to see what it would look like browsing the web. |
So overall, I think it's an interesting gadget if you have a few bucks to spare. Definitely not something for the hardcore enthusiast but for someone like me who enjoys variety, this was definitely an interesting purchase.
