I bought my projector for 800 dollars online. For a 720P DLP projector, you can't beat that. My previous expierence with a Hitachi PJX -100 720P LCD was mostly positive, the image was sharp and had a good quality picture, however the LCD panel on two diffrent Hitachi models was less then satisfactory. Both LCD panels had to be replaced with fewer then 2000 hours of viewing. Instead i bought the Mitsubishi HD1000U with the hope that the DLP technology would endure more use then the LCD, which tended to "burn out" more quickly on my two previous Hitachis. So far the Mitsubishi HD1000U has had an average picture when combined with my Halos DVD Player that upconverts standard DVDs to 1080I and the brightness has also been average, less bright however then the Hitachi PJX-100. The placing of the projector has been problamatic because it requires a ceiling mount or inconvinetly on a coffee table because of its inability to adjust the picture to an eye-level setting, when placed behind on a stand, etc. behind you. Either way, i could spend more money on buying a projector mount and having it installed for me or spend a bit more on a SANYO PLV-5 and getting a better picture with a higher contrast and overall better qualities.
