AE700 Questions
Hi,
I'm about to pension off my AE100 for one of these. Can anybody tell me if it can use the same ceiling mount as the AE100, as I've got a nice Unicol one and it would be a shame to waste it.
Also, I use an 'MDF + Dulux Ice Storm' screen currently, as the 100's contrast ratio makes it unusable on a white screen. With the 700, will I be able to finally live the dream of projecting onto my white wall?
Finally, what should I expect to get for my 100, with 3680 hours on the clock? (and possibly a nice Unicol ceiling bracket!)
Thanks,
Stan.

Yes it is a big step up from the 500 especially when you get it for free

Well, assuming the 300 was better than the 100, and the 500 was better than the 300... I'm in for a treat 
Burglary is wrong, though. Buy your next one, eh?

I love mine, best purchase ever. My family are always wanting to use it (unfortunately it seems just a little too complicated for them to turn on by themselves!  ). Its gone away for new firmware for the last week and Ive had a few moans about how long its been already!
