I work for a company and have been asked to find a solution for our Conference/Board room.
The room is approx 20'X30' with a board room table that seats 15. There are 2 large picture windows at one end of the room that let in the daylight. The room is not a perfect square, and has angled walls at one end.
The solution we have now is a simple portable projector screen that is probably 10yrs old, and a compaq ipaq mp3800. This is mainly for portablity to take equipment to client sites for presentations.
The end solution we want for the room is to have something setup to be used for viewing TV news broadcasts, and video, but most importantly, to be used for highly graphical (aerial photo imagery) powerpoint presentation and for Autocad drawing files during our client meetings. And the final use would be for video conferencing and webex conferencing.
I'd like an all-in-one solution that is also aestheticly pleasing so that the board room looks "cool" to visitors.
We need to have the room bright during meetings, so a solution that looks good in both bright light situations and darkness would be best.
I'm not sure if I should look at a 50" (or 60") plasma or a new projector ceiling mounted with a dropdown screen. I've read they make "daylight" screens, but cannot locate much info in the US on them.
I've been researching, but there is just so much to absorb that I'm hoping some folks here might give me some recommendations.
I contacted one local vendor who came for an initial site visit meeting, promising to get back with me with quotes and information, but that was over 3 weeks ago and I have not heard back. This guy was recommended to me by my computer supply vendor, but I am not pleased with the response from him.
Asside from going to Bestbuy or something, I'm not sure who to call for information and assistence.
Any help or insight would be appreciated
