They are going to have to film Katie Couric from a half a mile away now :o. Other experimental screens include a TV with a million to […]

Ahh the 1080p support throws me off everytime. Here I thought the Panny AX100U was a 1080p native projector for less then $3 grand. Outside its non-native 1080pness, it boats a lot of juicy specs.
