Epson’s 5000 line (of which I have the 5030) also has a sibling line, the 6000 series, which are considered to be the “pro” versions. The electronics under the hood are generally the same, but the 6000 series has historically had the black coloring, been shipped with extra bulbs and setup options and costs a little more.
The color doesn’t really matter to me since my projector isn’t visible from where I sit during the film, but I do understand the concern. The thinking on the 5000 line might be that the whiter color works better with rooms that are multipurpose.
If i'm not mistaken, the 6000 series also includes a mount, and the ability to use an anamorphic lens. Considering all those extras and possibly a deal, its makes sense to at least put it in the running. As far as when it may come out, I've heard May from another forum.
