Product Description

Take projection out of the boardrooms and put it literally in the palm of your hand with the Cinemin Swivel Multimedia Pico Projector by WowWee. This pocket-size projector features Texas Instruments' DLP projection technology and a unique 90-degree hinge that allows you to project onto virtually any surface. Use it to connect to a wide variety of handheld devices--such as the iPod, iPhone, and Flip Video--so that you can project your videos, photos, and more with anyone, at any time.

The Cinemin Swivel offers:
  • Mid-body 90-degree hinge for adjustable viewing.
  • Small size and long battery life for easy traveling.
  • High-contrast, ultra-clear HVGA picture.
  • Four international adapters for charging abroad.

A 90-degree hinge gives you flexibility to project an image anywhere without having to use a tripod or prop.
Made for iPod and Other Popular Devices
The Cinemin Swivel can be used with your favorite portable media players, including the iPod, iPhone, Flip Video, PSP, digital cameras, portable DVD players, netbooks, and smartphones with video-out functionality. Just connect your device to the Swivels' easy-to-access AV-in jack, and you're ready to project. And with its unique, mid-body 90-degree hinge, the Swivel can project on any surface you can image, such as the ceiling, walls, and floor, without a tripod or prop.

Ultra-clear, High Contrast Picture
Featuring Texas Instruments' DLP projection technology, the Cinemin Swivel produces remarkably clear, high contrast pictures with a resolution of 480 x 320 (HVGA). In a dimly lit environment, the Swivel can project a crisp 60-inch image from over eight feet away, or from the floor to the ceiling in a typical room.

Longer Battery Life
And unlike most other handheld projectors with battery spans of only 60-90 minutes, the Swivel has a rechargeable battery that lasts over two hours--so you'll never have to worry about your movie or slide show being cut short. The Swivel also includes an AC adapter, giving you the option of running it off any standard electrical outlet.

Innovative 90-Degree Swivel Base
The Swivel boasts a one-of-a-kind, stylish 90-degree hinge that makes it easy to project onto the floor, walls, or ceiling without having to use a prop or a tripod. The handheld projector also includes a built-in speaker with adjustable volume and a headphone jack, allowing you to connect your own portable speakers for when you need to crank the volume.

Equipped for International Traveling
Lightweight and compact, the Swivel is perfect for traveling. And because it comes with a stylish, padded carrying case and includes four power adapters for North America, the UK, Europe, and Australia--the Swivel is ideal for your next globetrotting excursion.

By taking projection technology out of boardrooms and literally into the palm of your hand, the Cinemin Swivel lets you enjoy your multimedia collection virtually anywhere, with anyone.

What's in the Box
AC/DC power adapter with four plugs, USB (A) to mini USB (B-5 pin) cable, USB (A) to mini USB (B-4 pin) cable, 3.5 mm to 3.5 mm cable, AV composite to 3.5 mm cable, battery, padded soft case with Velcro flap, and a quick start guide.

Pretty cool little gadget
 
Review Date: November 6, 2009
Reviewer: A. Mendelsohn,
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.
Great Toy
 
Review Date: October 22, 2009
Reviewer: R. C. Lim,
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.
Great for work and family
 
Review Date: October 22, 2009
Reviewer: DotL,
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.
