Epson PowerLite Home Cinema 1080 UB - LCD projector - 1600 ANSI lumens - 1920 x 1080 - widescreen - High Definition 1080p Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I've only had it for a week or so but I absolutely love it so far. This replaces a Sanyo PLV-70 (2200 lumens; 720p). I don't have a dedicated home theater room so I deal with some ambient light. I was afraid that going down to 1600 lumens might be an issue but it has not. The 1080 UB is plenty bright.I've...

Epson PowerLite Home Cinema 720 720p 3LCD Home Theater Projector Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I bought this PJ elsewhere (not at Amazon) for $1149. This is my third digital PJ and the best unit so far. I started out about 12 years ago with the old heavy CRT beast. CRT is a rapidly dying breed and the pix quality has improved with digital PJ's they are no longer worth the hassle (IMO). The new...

Epson PowerLite 1735W Multimedia Projector (V11H270020) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)The PowerLite 1735W is terrific portable presentation tool. I researched comparable DLP-based projectors before buying this one. The PowerLite's picture quality is excellent for such a small projector, and the "3LCD" technology works very well for playing videos (comparable DLP projectors have trouble...

InFocus LP540 Multimedia Video Projector 1700 Lumens Review

The DLP...

LG Flatron L1951S-SN Liteview 19" LCD Monitor (Silver) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This is my first flat-screen LCD monitor, so maybe the images and type aren't supposed to be as crystal-clear as my old NEC Multi-Sync CRT monitor. Or maybe it's because everything's enlarged to 19 inches.Also, the Auto-Brightness setting button seems a little limited. The eight choices are either too...

PowerLite S6 Multimedia Projector (V11H283420) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)We have been using Epson PowerLite S5 for a while now, and it seems to be pretty good. We buy the new version S6 because it has USB support; however, the technical description did not bother point out the the USB display is for Window only while we use Mac. The product is still good, but we wish it has...

Sony BDP-S301 1080p Blu-ray Disc Player BD/DVD/CD Playback Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I gotta admit it: when it comes to electronics, I'm about as brand-loyal to Toshiba as they come. Nevertheless, for me, the whole history of the Blu-ray vs. HD-DVD wars has unfolded on the software battlefield. Sony has simply come up with a better DVD. By the time HD-DVD catches up, we'll all either...

The unit works with a wired connection of course. Fortunately, I have a MacBook with Tiger (and an Intel Mac with Leopard). The projector is very light, but quite bright. It is supposed to...

OMNIMOUNT OL125FT 23-Inchto45-Inch OmniLite Tilt Flat Panel Mount Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Omnimount OL125FT bracket was used to wall mount a 40" Sony Bravia KDL-40EX400 LCD television. The television weighs about 30 lbs. Sony recommends you use their SUWL500 bracket, which is outrageously expensive...over $200! The Omnimount bracket is a suitable affordable alternative.The bracket is heavy...

This is a replacement for the Canon S100 Digital Elph which I had for almost five years. That broke and I got the Konica Minolta here in Asia before it was released in the US.There are several shortcomings with the Konica...

Speck Active Sport Armband Case with Velcro Fastener for iPod nano 2G (Black) Review

The advantages of the Speck case over the previous one, which I bought at Wal-Mart for about $10 are as follows: --The velcro goes all the way around the armband, instead of in patches, which allows for unlimited adjustability.--The...
