Hi Jeannie, The model I bought a few years ago was the 730c. It' s part of
Epson's Commuter series. That's because they weigh under 4 lbs. The current
similar models available are the 740c and the 745c the only real difference
between the two is the 745c has WyFi capability which maybe handy. Both also
mount either top or bottom, or stand alone. I paid less than $2000.00 from
Dell on a clearance sale. The specs on these little things are as good as
many larger more difficult to operate projectors, and due to their size they
ship and transport easily. Probably the most important thing is the 2 year
warranty with which I have had experience. My focus was fuzzy and not
correctable so I called the company from the site of the show and they
(support) helped me diagnose the problem on the spot. Then, as it was a
problem we couldn't fix they sent  a call tag to the hotel I was staying at
immediately. I sent the unit to them from there. They sent a new projector
to my next hotel stop directly (shipped overnight) and it was there when I
arrived. Zero expense to me. And that was the end of it. I was up and
running with only one day of missed service.  I have never had such service
in my life so I hope I haven't gone on too long explaining it, but it is
still amazing to me. Other than that one time ( and BTW I dropped it) the
machine has cooked perfectly. Anyhow good luck with the purchase. I think Al
and Paul Sanderson are happy with their's too. Best, Chris Solliday
