How's the brightness look from this DLA-HD2K unit? That's the only issue I
may have with it.. 500 lumens?
Still love to have one, though. I have a JVC G11 (Dilard calibrated) now.
I'd hate to replace it, but I may have to someday due to damned HDCP/DVI
stuff.
The Sony Qualia is another new $$$ digital projector that's blowing
reviewers away.
You can have performance close to this *now* for about $2,000 - $5,000.
Try a search in Ebay for JVC G11 or G15.
