Optoma MovieTime Home Theater DLP Projector With Built-In DVD Player
Great Projector
Regarding the previous negative review, I would be pissed too if the lamp blew that early on, but that can happen to any projector.  Just like any electronics, there can always be a dud.  I understand their frustration, but this is a 1st class projector.<br /><br />The lamp life is actually 3000 hrs in economode, and the projector is extremely bright for watching DVDs in this mode even on a 110 inch screen.  The lamp life is probably rated a little bit longer than the average projector.<br /><br />A positive for indoor viewing, is this projector has a very short throw which is great for smaller rooms with big screens.  A negative is it would be difficult to ceiling mount, so this is really just a coffee table or floor projector.  But it's primary function is portability.<br /><br />The portability and \\"Wow\\" factor for showing movies outdoors is great.  Imagine your neighbors faces when you have a 7 ft wide movie on the side of your house.  The built in speakers are suprisingly good for their size.  This is a great projector for taking on a vacation where you have lots of downtime to catch up on movies.<br /><br />Another major plus, is the built in DVD player allows for a digital to digital display of the video which would require an HDMI or DVI connection on an ordinary projector.  So no need to spend $50-$100 on a cable.<br /><br />Compared to many higher end business projectors, the contrast is quite good and brightness is great.  For the money this projector is a bargain, especially if the DVD player holds up for a few years.<br /><br />It even comes with a nice carrying case and decent remote.<br /><br />First impression is 5 stars.
