Boomer;
Yes the NextVison N5 rescales my crappy Rogers cable to a watcheable picture.
Alan: As with the new generation Projectors...Infocus X1 or Panny 300 or 500 you can be within 7.5-10 feet and not see any pixalation with a 80 inch picture. You will see some pixalation at about 4.5 feet and thats barely. They are that good today...specially with DLP projectors.
That said you are correct that they last only for some time but since the X1 has about 4000 hours ... thats a pretty long time if I may only watch 3-4 movies a week..and thats on the high side. I barely watch TV on my projector. Thats why I have a separate 19 inch LCD monitor for daily news and stuff. The projector can do TV duty but thats only speacial occassions like a game or a speacial show.
