Now, this isn’t really cheap in comparison to a box of paperclips, but for the home theater buffs looking for a high-end, but comparatively cheap projector Circuit City has your pot of gold. The projector is a Mitsubishi HC4900 which offers up 1920×1080 resolution also known as 1080p, a 7.5k:1 contrast ratio, and a thousand ANSI lumens.
Talk about a gorgeous screen! This, friends and pixies, is Mitsubishi’s d905i, set to form part of NTT DoCoMo’s winter line-up of its high-end 905 range. And the crowning glory really does have to be its 3.1-inch 480×864 WVGA+ 262k colour display, on which you can enjoy such pleasantries as the full MSN Messenger experience, HTML email and more.
Mitsubishi unveiled eight new 1080p LCD TVs today. They each sport 3 HDMI 1.3 inputs and x.v.Color which offers 80% more color space than ATSC color space. Unfortunately, you won’t find anything on the market that currently outputs in x.v.Color except for some newer camcorders. You’ll also notice that the frames on these are smaller than most LCDs on the market measuring as little as an inch.
I must confess, I love watching TV but the sets themselves generally fail to ignite my enthusiasm. So it’s a sign of how cool this new HD DLP from Mitsubishi is that it got me interested; not for the specs – though 57-inches and 1080p are pretty special – but for the achingly thin bezel around the screen.
