Why is Sony now able to sell a 16X9 1366X768 LCD projector (the HS10) for well under $3K while all 720P DLP's sold through U.S. dealer channels are at least double that?
Is it that LCD is a more mature technology and they amortize the cost of the LCD chips over more devices?
Or is it something else?
To the moderator: Please don't pull this post and then claim that it is talking about something under $5K MSRP. I am making a COMPARISON between something that is sub $5K and something that is over $5K. Since the discussion on this forum tends to be a little more intelligent than on the sub-$5K forum I wanted to post it here. Thank you.
