Chad, I own an X1 and while I use it primarily for movies when I first hooked up the XBOX to it, the picture blew me away. And no, the room doesn't have to be pitch black to see it. The picture is better as the room gets darker of course but I used mine today with the afternon sun...

Matt, I couldn't agree more. My brother-in-law has a very large (60"+/-) RPTV. IMO the picture is horrible but he argues with me like your example above, "Look, look, just back up here 25+ feet away. Now it looks good doesn't it?" :laugh: As for your original post. Thank you for an open...

After campaigning with my wife for some time that we needed a HTS I was given the green light to buy a system. Being a newbie to HT I decided by best route (to start) would be with a HTIB so after reading around a bit I went with a Sony HT-DDW740. It's status as a Consumer Reports "Best Buy"...

After doing hours of research both on and off the web I decided upon the Olympus D-380. It is a fixed focus (ie: point and shoot) camera with no optical zoom but I am very pleased with the quality of the pictures it takes. Wal-Mart has it now for only $178 but before you jump, take some time...
