Great Projector if taken care of! by omarmrza on cnet.com Apr 24, 2012
I absolutely agree with canucknucklehead! The dust does get stuck in the lens due to cheap packaging of the lens and hence the (Pixel like)"weird dots" start appearing on your screen. YES! They will replicate and take over your screen. I can tell you ...
 
Just what I wanted by ssmashem on newegg.com Apr 19, 2012
While there is an audio input for connections other than HDMI (HDMI transmits both audio and video), there is no audio output. Because of this, I have to get a component cable for my 360. Using HDMI will only let me get the audio through the projector ...

I purchased this projector after reading a favorable review in a computer magazine. When I tried it out, I failed to properly plug in the power cord all the way. Unfortunately it came out when I moved the projector to adjust the picture. It took only ...

Disposable by projectorless on newegg.com Mar 1, 2012
This thing broke after 13 months. One month after warranty (sound familiar? other reviewers have written this). Tech support is useless. The parts aren't repairable. Local shops told me to throw it away. It's "Disposable". $500 should not be a throwaway product I'm sorry...
