Epson EMP-TW1000 - 1080P with 1.3 HDMI

[chuckken2]

This projector should be a pretty nice addition to most home theaters and offers alot for the money ($2,927). It is out in Japan already and should be released here in the states within the next few months...

Dunno...but is there a comparison somewhere between projector TVs and flat panel alternatives?? JH

I don't think it will make it for January, but it's sure to be the buzz at the CES in Vegas this coming month... ...This projector seems to be promising, I'm not real fond of the way it looks though....Kinda lopsided looking, and swervy...

The "Ford Taurus" of projectors....

Thanks for the Site Chukken2. This looks like a strong contender. It certainly has everything I would want to justify and upgrade. Have you seen any reviews yet?

[chuckken2]

No not yet, but this should be a really nice FP and hopefully, I will be able to do a review myself ...(laymans of course)...
