I just read THIS review at Toms Hardware Guide and it peaked my interest in the Toshiba MT200. It's only $1,300 and was rated the best except for the more expensive Toshiba MT500. I haven't heard much about Toshiba projectors on this forum. What are your thoughts?
Also, The distance from wall to wall in my room is 16 feet. According to the throw distance calculator the smallest screen size would be 95in wide. That's too big. If I had an 80x45in screen and had the projector 16 feet back would that work?
About a screen. I found THIS 84in wide screen which would be perfect except it's 4:8. At the Elite Screens website they have the VMAX92NWH which is a 16:9 motorized screen. However, I cannot find a single store that sells it. Google turns up nothing. Are those screens any good anyway? Any other suggestions on an 84in wide 16:9 screen for no more than $400?
Also, how would I go about finding local stores that would allow me to preview projectors? I don't know what stores to look for or where to look. The closest area would likely be around Olympia WA. Anyone have any ideas?
