(Business 2.0) – ROOM TO VIEW

Toshiba et20 Need to make a sales presentation in a cramped office? No worries--there may still be a way to project your PowerPoint slides in all their glory. Toshiba says its latest portable projector flashes images almost 4 feet wide onto walls that are a mere 2 feet away. Built-in surround sound and a DVD player promise an off-the-clock bonus: an instant movie theater back at your hotel. $1,940; www.toshiba-europe.com

TREE TOTES

MOMA Laptop Carrying Case This wood briefcase by Japanese designer Takumi Shimamura, now sold in the States, can take whatever the road dishes out and still come home smelling sweet. Made of fragrant, "ecologically thinned" (as opposed to clear-cut) cedar, it's built for hard knocks with reinforced canvas edges, a leather-bound handle, and a water-repellent finish. $265; www.momastore.org

WASH AND TYPE

Adesso AKB-230 Say goodbye to that scourge of the office, the biohazard keyboard. Months-old latte drips should be no match for this washable "qwerty": All you need to do is run it under lukewarm water. The lightweight keyboard also rolls up and can be laid to fit the curve of any available surface. Adesso claims it's indestructible. $30; www.adesso.com

NOT LEFT BEHIND

Logitech MX610 Freedom is at hand for lefties tired of awkward wrist acrobatics when using a mouse, thanks to what Logitech claims is the first wireless laser model designed specifically for southpaws. Like its popular ergonomic sibling for righties, the left-handed MX610 comes with dedicated buttons for e-mail, instant-messaging, and sound control. Righty or lefty, the price stays the same. $60; www.logitech.com
