New Club Projector: Epson EX5210

Goodyear Toastmasters has recently purchased a brand new Epson EX5210 projector which can be used by any club member to assist them with their speech, lesson, viewpoint, debate or other presentation when using visual aids.

This incredible new projector has some great features which give it a competitive edge over the old one.

• 1024 x 748 screen resolution.
• An HDMI connection port for advanced technical presentations.
• Easy to use plug & play setup requiring little to no preparation when hooking up to your laptop.
• Built in LOUD speakers ensuring your audio presentations are heard throughout the room.
• Can present with a USB stick only (no need to bring your laptop!)
• The projector can ONLY play image files such as .jpg off of a USB stick. It will be unable to play your PowerPoint or video presentation unless you bring a laptop. To do a USB presentation ensure all of your slides are in .jpg format in a folder that is easy to access on your USB stick.
• Two remotes which allow you to control your presentation from a distance.
• A built in laser pointer on one of the remotes.

To use the projector in your presentation please arrange with your Sergeant at Arms and meeting Chair and/or Toastmaster prior to the meeting.

If you have any questions please leave them in a comment on this post and we will gladly answer them for you.

I thought this was so appropriate for Speakers. We all know the self inflicted barriers we have to overcome to become the "YES, I DID IT" person.  The fact is we need to adapt, keep moving and invariably, we will all reach the top.
