Sony Qualia 004 projector-How well does it work?

Saw a demo of Blu-ray on this 1080p projector in NYC at the Qualia store - Blu-ray was STUNNING - beyong my high expectations.We are in for a treat when HD DVD & Blu-ray arrive. I thought the DVD presentation was very good - very detailed but I think the internal processing may not be as good as some of the projectors that I have seen with Faroudja DCDi with respect to motion artifacts. The 006 Qualia 70 inch rear projection TV was equally stunning.

I have seen the Qualia 70" set also. It was the best I've seen from a TV.

ok...i'm venturing into an area that i know very little...about a year ago i started reading up on projectors at avsforum.com...i am not commenting on your choice of projector because i am sure it is kick-@ss, but you mention that your home will be completed by october...anyhow...that is 4 months away and i have a feeling that from what i noticed over the last year or so is that projectors are updated so frequently that some people who had ordered brand XYZ were still waiting for delivery when the XYZ signature version was being introduced (I can't remember the exact brand...sorry)...who knows...by october...you may be looking at a whole new league of projectors that are gonna be marketed towards the 2005 christmas shoppers.

good luck...enjoy the new digs!

yeah we eihter need some lower price points on 3 chip DLP's and Lcos unit's, or we need some lower prices on 3 chipd DLP's and Lcos units...SED anyone?

those new sony qualia LCoS machined are absolutely insanely amazing, but they're HUGE! have you seen how big they are? and from what i've read, i think they're meant for larger screens, but that shouldn't be too big of a deal.

oh, and ellery - while you are right in principal, the new Sonys, which are their new versions of LCoS with much better contrast and smaller pixel gaps, are so far ahead of the pack right now that it'll be a good while before anything catches up.
