I want to replace my AE900 and am not sure what to get. I like the idea of increased brightness of the AX200 but I also like the idea of increased resolution and contrast in the AE2000. I like the lower price of the AX200 but will I would spend a little more if the AE2000 is the better projector.

In the real world how much brighter is the AE2000 compared to the AE900. It is rated at 1500 lumens verses the 1100 lumens of the AE900. The AE900 barely handles the ambient light I have now, I'm sure the AX200 would be an improvement but will the AE2000's 400 more lumens be noticeable?

Has anyone with an AE900 tried both of these projectors?
