I use mine for Xbox, and Computer games mostly and it works great. Can't beat playing halo 3 or Command and Conquer ZH on an entire wall in my apartment. =) Cons: The projector can get super hot sometimes, and doesn't have a sleep timer which is annoying when I fall asleep and waste 8 hours of bulb time because epson was too lazy to but that feature in the software. I wish it would come with Highdef inputs for my Xbox, but it's whatev. from Newegg.com while it is in principle compatible with 480p, 720p, 1080i, it doesn't have the required plugs at the back (component video) Epson sells an adaptor cable for ~$100, so that you can connect a HDTV or EDTV (480p) input through a VGA plug (what you'd normally use for a computer), but this adaptor is just point-to-point wiring, you can buy one elsewhere for very cheap: you need a "HD15 (VGA) Male to RCA x 3 Female" adaptor from Amazon.com I travel...a bit too much. I need a light projector that will travel with me, and make my colorful presentations look good. This unit does the job. from Amazon.com while it is in principle compatible with 480p, 720p, 1080i, it doesn't have the required plugs at the back (component video) Epson sells an adaptor cable for ~$100, so that you can connect a HDTV or EDTV (480p) input through a VGA plug (what you'd normally use for a computer), but this adaptor is just point-to-point wiring, you can buy one elsewhere for very cheap: you need a "HD15 (VGA) Male to RCA x 3 Female" adaptor from Amazon.com This projector offers very good performance, super easy set-up and an easy to carry package. There are all the inputs you could want, except for HD video displays. from Amazon.com Pros Easy to use, clear pictures, remote works well. Cons No USB connection with Macs, must be close to screen to fit. from Pcnation.com I wouldn't think that good for the bulb, but even so, I don't want to put the hot machine back in the case we have (foam protection might melt). It has a door that mutes the audio/video, but it stays hot, even with the fan running and I see light in there, so I'm not sure it actually turns the bulb off during the mute. It really should have means to turn off the lamp and keep the fan on till it cools. Other Thoughts: I have the previous version of this as well and it has the same features/issues. from Newegg.com Pros: Very simple to use, practically plug and play Cons: wish the carry bag had a zipper for accesories storage but other than that nothing. from Newegg.com Pros: With this projector i was a little hesitant on buying it since it was new to Newegg, and no one else had written a review about it. Fortunately it turned out to be one of the best investments I've ever made ( In the sense that I don't need a TV and/or Monitor anymore). from Newegg.com
