What are the specs on it? 800 X 600? LCD?

I think if I was gonna go a Sanyo, I'd tell him to scrape together another 800ish and get a Z2. That's a real crowd pleaser.

I think the Panny will be a pretty nice projector. If he needs to run it in daylight though, he may need to look for a bit more lumens. However, the Lumens is not always a true indicator of brightness anyway. Read a review or two, that's a good place to start.

Unless you had a problem with DLP projectors, I'd choose the InFocus X1 instead. It costs a couple hundred (Canadian) more, but you get better light output, much better contrast, better blacks, and comparable resolution.

I don't want to get into trouble posting dealer links, but the X1 can be found in Canada for less than 1400 bucks...

I'd do some searching if I were you...

Bent!

That's right 8O !!!!Wowowowowowowowowowowowo!

I called and the guy told me they have an Infocus model #???? that is like the X1 but is made for Home Theater and it sells for a couple hundred more!
