Price: $4,999 (MAP)

Highlights: Three-chip 1080p LCD

Epson's 720p PowerLite projectors have earned strong reviews, so how can we not be excited by a 1080p model for just $4,999?! The PowerLite Pro Cinema 1080p is the latest in the trend of three-chip 1080p projectors that are priced far lower than the single-chip DLP competition. This is the kind of trend we like. The Epson has a host of features Epson claims will enhance image quality, and will be avaialble in January of '07.
