to be honest, this one would just end up as part of a home theater set up for my parents, but, since, they still havent made the switch to flat screen, I think it would still be a worthwhile upgrade for them.

I honestly have no clue if I would use this much.  I'm moving into a studio next semester and trying to decide whether to get a projector or a TV since I don't have one of my own.  I hope i'd be able to receive one just to have if I decide to stick with it.

I want to give my mom something nice and I know I wouldn't be able to afford anything this level while being a high school senior and a college freshman.

I think the PF1000U projector is ideal in a small apartment to get a big picture on a wall with short distance to the other wall

Absolutely awesome projector, blew me away that it's able to project 60" screen at 4" from the wall!

My thoughts?

I've worked with projectors for a large portion of my life (never owned one since I'm still a student), generally while helping teachers at school and/or running assemblies so I have a pretty good understanding of how they work and behave. I've used older projectors that take about 5 minutes to cool down before they can be unplugged and ones that can be flicked off instantly, all of which were 4:3 aspect ratio btw. However this projector isn't like any of them. The PF1000U projector has an LED RGB bulb, which is 1920x1080 in resolution. That is a game changer for me, as I never thought consumer projectors would be able to produce resolutions such as 1080p and still retain image quality. It can span to a massive 100" in size (or 200" when pushing it to the limit). Immediately I can picture myself hosting LAN parties where not only can we have a blast gaming, but watch a few 1080p movies on the big screen!   ..... did I mention that the bulb has an estimated 30,000 hour use time? :o It's HDMI, perfect for hooking up to a blu-ray player or my PC, and I'd be able to wirelessly share content from my android phone to it.

Thanks for the chance to win!

Looks good. A bit disappointing that it has no VGA, DVI or DisplayPort (according to their website).

This is a really impressive device for its size.

But I need some advice, they sell it as 3D.

But no mention about that technology.

Framerate isn't quoted either,

so Linus, enlighten me, our tech adviser.

Let's see where random brings me. The short throw is amazing, most of these type of projectors have short throw but are pretty bulky as well. This one seems to be so portable. I wonder if I mirror the screen and project it on top of an old DLP tv 'screen' from the back, what amazing quality it would give you. Probably not needed but worth a try.

One thing for sure, it won't need a long room, only a big wall.

Also I don't need to worry about shadow when moving toward the wall to point the presentation
