Given the demand, I doubt you'll get one for much less than 7.5.

Rumour has it an Optoma H81 at around £4000, so I'm sure other 1080 DLPs will not be far behind.

Is anyone going to go for a Ruby, then? I've given up on single chip DLP until they do something radically different, so this makes my choice a lot simpler. |

They should be "everywhere" this month, although supplies in all regions will be limited. If reports are accurate, £7300 is a bit of a bargain.

Hi Darko,
You will see the difference between a 1080 source and an upscaled 576 source on a 1080 res pj, most notably in background information.

What source is currently available in 1080p?
Thought we were just moving into 720p with HiDef TV around the corner.

At the moment only downloaded stuff from US TV channels like HBO are in the 1080 format.

Nope will be a real 1920x1080 chip for front projection.
See the link for a few extra details http://www.dlp.com/about_dlp/about_d...se.asp?id=1270
I also hope they can do something about the damn rainbows. Early reports seem to suggest that the RBE has been reduced with the new DMD. I remain skeptical but you never now until the production units hit the street.

Yes I have seen all the releases, but does this mean all set will be native 1080p or only the 'premium' ones? I just feel there may be many DLPs under 1080p banner which are stictly.....? thoughts?
