Sony VPL-VW100 or Projection Design Action! Model two or Cm2 HT300E


Hi can anyone help me please to choose between these three units.
i know that all three are very good.
i have phone same dealers around but still very confused they always recommend what ever they have in stock and so on
i know that there is a big difference in price but if the Sony will give better picture then i don't mind the price difference.
That’s why I would like the expert advice, and I know that there are a few around here.
Thank you

I am not an expert,nor i have seen these particular models,but i doubt that somebody will say that the Sony has peers amongst the lower priced digital projectors.It is also the most future-proof domestic projector on the market today(1080p).It usually competes with the more expensive three-chip DLP projectors that are still 720p.

I agree with Mainaman about Sony JP'S I am currently running Sony VW12HT which has HD capabilities and I am more than happy with it. But I've got an eye on VW100. I am going for a demo at the weekend and I will make up my mind either to stick with my current PJ, wait for few more years for new generation of PJ'S or take a plunge

The sony Ruby is a 'next-generation' projector with it's native 1080p capabilities. You'll be set for HD DVD and BlueRay at their optimum setting AND You won't worry about HD moving onto 1080p ina year or two.
I'd love to able to afford one of these machines!

If I was spending that kind of money on a projector, I wouldn't buy any of them without a demo. What I or others would recommend may not suit what you like to see from a pj. I would also wait until the end of the year when there will be more 1080 pjs to choose from (including a cheaper 1080 LCoS Sony).
