Sony’s VPL-VW70 Ships
Sony’s new flagship home theater projector (since there are rumors everywhere that they’re about to dump the overpriced VW200) is shipping, the VPL-VW70. Like its predecessors, the VW70 has two HDMI ports, a component video port and a few other useless ports for stuff no one uses any more in a home theater, but one thing is for sure: this projector is ahead of the pack in performance. The 1080p native, $8000, SXRD (reflective LCD) based projector is capable of producing a 60,000:1 contrast ratio and colorimetry that is second to none in LCD today – but, it’s only 800-ANSI lumens: so install it in a windowless room!

Display Companies Need to Buy a Media Server Company!
I’m shocked that only one display company has been smart enough to buy a media server company. The irony? You can’t have one without the other. Everything else connected to a projector or monitor is optional — not required. But in the case of a media server, a display — whether it’s a projector, LED, […]
