I got one of those ceiling mounted rollup screen that companies use for their projector demos. Would that work for one of these HD projectors? Or should I get something customized.

Did you buy an extended warranty as well? That color wheel/engine will probably go on it. :)


I can pick up an ext warranty for $79, have 30 days to decide.

Did staples tell you about the $100 rebate?

How big is your screen & does regular TV look bad compared to a DVD?

Yep, I already submitted the easy rebate...:D, and I used a $50 off $500 coupon on it:)


When we lived in the dorms, we watched cable tv on Yoyo's Infocus projector, and it looked really good. I don't understand why everybody recommends a regular tv for tv viewing-- as long as you close the shades and have a good tv source (cable or satellite), projectors look great for tv viewing.

This one is ED.

I'm not quite sure what kind of screen you're talking about, but if it's a flat uncolored surface, :thumbsup:
