These are the three I am looking at right now. They will be used in a room with a lot of light. I would like atleast a 100 in screen. Thanks for the help.


hd20 --------$950

pro8100------$1150

x10----------$1050

or

hd65(refurb)-$550

I'm interested in this response as well.

I'm kind of in the same boat. If I had the cash, I'd go with the Pro8100, but I don't. I've pretty much decided on the HD65.

The pro 8100 would be my choice although the HD65 would be very tempting at that price if price was important. I would probably wait to see the reviews on the benq w1000.


Edit: I didn't see the "room with a lot of light" part. My choice is a 50" Panasonic 720p plasma .

I tried a HD20 for an hour and it was underwhelming in black level, although acceptable and not very placement friendly. The 8100 seems a good PJ although there are more problems in that thread than I like to see.


I agree on the comment about alot of light, but I might go with a large DLP rear projection set (up to 80" I think) or a large LCD if you can afford one. Plasmas are the best IMO, but they have a problem in a lot of light due to reflections even though they are better than a couple of years ago. The other two don't have them as badly.
