IMHO, you are too close for 768p 1150 - if I were you I'd get 1080p 110FD.

Thanks! I guess the extra cash will be worth it in the end. Oner more question...Are there any major changes with the 2008 Pioneers?

Thanks for the info. I have a Panny 700U that I bought last month and really should have purchased the Pioneer based on what I saw, but didn't. Anyway, is it worth the loss to buy the Elite? Any thoughts?

Ok, now I'm torn. Ordered the 1150HD, but can still switch to the 110FD. Watch mostly blue-ray and hd-dvd and sit about 10 feet in a controlled lighting environment. Can't move any closer. Driving me nuts. Yes I could spend the extra dollars, but only if I could really see a benefit. Also have the wife factor to consider. If 5-8 feet is too close for the 1150, does 10 feet make any more of a difference? Thanks.

I guess the other factor is how long you plan on keeping the TV. If Pioneer comes out with some ground breaking technology in the next couple years and you want to upgrade, is it worth spending the cash on the 1080P now?

However, I only use my TV for movies, would the 1150 have issues with Blu-ray?

I'm trying to decide between the two models. There's about a $1300 price difference. Is it worth it for the 1080p? Thanks.

If you plan on buying a Blu-ray disc player someday, the answer is yes.

I could, but it's a wraparound couch and my wife dosen't like it moved all the time. She already thinks I nuts for all the money I have sunk into this hobby.
Went back and measured and it actually came out to 8 feet. Thinking it may be worth it after all based on the comments, given that my blue/hd movie collection totals about 150 and I view in a dark environment. If I don't there will always be that doubt in the back of my mind that I made the wrong decision. Thanks.
