The Acer K330 uses the new "Pico" chip from TI which is native 1280x800 pixels; I don't think TI even makes "wobulated" chips any longer, but i could be wrong on this point...

Too bad! I hoped for subframes. Looks like these projectors behave just like an LCD then, even though with custom rear projection screen, 120hz could be used for wobulation .
I've been itching to pull the trigger on a pj since the start of the year (!). Now, like a few posters hv already mentioned, I'm gonna wait for all of these clones to be released and tested a bit before I pull the trigger. This hopefully will be done sometime before xmas (this year). It's gonna be and gonna feel like a long long wait still.
Guys, remember that Viewsonic, Acer and Optoma have already stated that the USA pricing for these projectors will be $700 and i for one have no doubt about it.
Last year when i bought my LG HX-300G i first saw it at ebay, shipped from Hong Kong, for almost $1,000; By the time i got it from a USA dealer the msrp was around $750 and i got it discounted for less than that amount.
Wait until late September/October and we'll all be able to get any of them for $700, although i imagine that to find them much discounted from that might be difficult at first.
I just did a search on the Optoma ML-500 and found a dealer who is has it on pre-order and as MCaugusto has said, it's around $ 700, this shop in New York city has it priced for under $ 700 .
