futureshop.ca/catalog/prodde … &langid=EN

yngwie CAN YOU BE any less descriptive?  :neutral_face:

only downside i see is 800 x 600, i would want better then that…1800 lumens is good,

Yeah but 399, thats the cheapest one Ive come across.  I always wanted one, so I bought it.

Great for powerpoint presentations, but probably not good for multimedia/home theater.

Cheap devices aren’t always that good, but if that’s what you wanted then go ahead.

BTW, what are you planning on using it for?

Can you have the resolution on your comp at 1152x864 running through the projector that only supports 800x600

I’ll give you a better solution:

Cancel the order.

I have to agree with you , this is a cheap CHEAP projector, really not good for HT, i bet it will look like horrid SHIT.

Costco had really nice ones, i did mount our $5000 Sony xbr one on the ceiling in our home theatre room, NOW thats a pannel.

What kinda screen you projecting onto ? That makes a huge difference on the picture.

Ill get a good screen.  Im not to picky about quality.  Its mainly for downloaded movies and emulated games (nes, snes, mame).  It will only get used in a dark room, never during the day.  If I dont like it, I could probably sell it for the price I paid to someone. 

U got 30 days to return it :stuck_out_tongue:

Im pretty sure Ill like it.  If not ill get a better model.  I wouldn’t want to pay more then 1000

They are selling pretty fast, I bet they will be sold out tonight

Well alot of things sold out today, we had 3900 people out side our store at 6am when we opened, it was soooooo hard to move around. I just got home too!

That’s how our economy should be, people buying absolutely useless things because they want to and like the price.
Use that CapitalOne card too… only criminals use cash.
