OPTIMAX HD-P800

I have now had my OPTIMAX HD-P800  for 2 weeks. I have had no problems. It is hanging in my living room and I can watch any time during the day or night. For a living room setting, the white projector blends into the ceiling better than a black 9700 UB. With 9 foot ceilings I can still have it high and tight to the ceiling and it covers my 92 inch screen perfectly with the top edge 18 inches from the ceiling. I love the picture quality. I have used it with my laptop, dvd palyer, my wii console and netflix viewing. The color and picture quality I can't complain about. Everything looks good. The sound is pretty good as well. There is an option to add a audio out put device which is nice and convient as well. The projector does not make much noticable noise while playing. It is very lightweight and managable and it even cae with HDMI and VGA cables. Don't lose the remote or you are in trouble. There are no controls on the projector it self to manually change the source. All of the adjustments to the picture and output are done thru the remote. If you couldadd any other features to this device I would add a volume control on the projector and also a source control button incase something happens to your remote. Great Deal in my opinion. For the price I think it is the best you can get. I watch movies on Directv and the HD looks almost too sharp, Its amazing. I must be used to watching soft blurry movies I guess.
