Upgrade already from MT200 to Optoma HD70

Argghh-I purchase the excellent Toshiba MT200 last year and am very please with it-however at the back of my mind is a nagging feeling to upgrade already and the Optoma HD70 sounds good-I saw another forum member sell his Mt200 for £330 recently

I know its very subjective but can anyone who has done this upgrade tell me if they saw a significant improvement? I will probably feed HD material from my PC or via xbox 360

Cheers

Re: Upgrade already from MT200 to Optoma HD70

ive just upgraded to the hd70 from the mt200 (it might have been mine you saw sold) sold mine for 330 plus postage on ebay.
the improvement with hd material is noticeable. i would say with the 360 the difference it not massive on most games. but there is still an improvement.
i prefer the overall picture on the hd70. you can get a larger picture than the mt200 over the same distance.
the remote imo is better and is backlit.
best thing is to try and get a demo of one and see what you think.
(i was feeding hd from my pc)
