Hi guys, I'm looking for my first projector and its a bit of a challenge!
The room is less than ideal - a semi dedicated room with curtains that don't block out all light and a room layout that allows a screen with 1.5 - 1.8m as a maximum ie 5' or 6'. For DVDs mostly although I may use it for TV at times as well.
Things I'm looking for:
* low cost of projector and lamp - around cost of Acer PH110 or Panasonic PT-LM2E
* low fan noise since I'm about to install the only thing with fan noise in another room, I don't want to bring fan noise back in!
* overall quality
What do you guys suggest?
Can anyone point me to some good reviews and sources of info/reviews?
Does anyone know what the refresh rate of entry level DLPs are? I had my monitor set at 60 Hz and it was irritating to my eyes but now I have it at 85 Hz and its fine.
