We will get more projector info up tomorrow. Ron is going to stop by Optima and a few other vendors. It is important to note that just because 1080P is here that 720P is not obsolete--far from it. We went to some demos with 1080 DLP right next to 720 DLP (Both projectors were from the same vendor) and I couldn't tell the difference on HD material. That doesn't mean you won't see a difference is you sit fairly close to the screen, but if your seating is at a "normal" distance, there is a good chance you won't. This means that there will be bargins to be had in the 720 projectors because of the hype surrounding 1080P. Ron and RAF saw the same demo. Hopefully they will chime in with their $.02.
