So now that Samsung has said they are leaving the rear projection DLP market in 2009 how risky is it to invest in this technology? I've been strongly considering a LED based DLP set. I realize that the LEDs are suppose to last "the lifetime of the set", but in the event something breaks (because electronic gadgets do that from time to time) what is the likelyhood of finding the parts needed to repair the set and finding someone to service the thing.
The same question goes for the bulb based DLP sets. No doubt, bulb based DLP front projection units will continue to be manufactured. Are those bulbs compatible with the rear projection sets? Any chance these parts and the service techs needed to perform the repairs will become difficult to find in 5-10 years down the road?
