August Update: The 1080p Optoma HD20 has been announced and is $1000. It is available for pre-order on several internet sites. It certainly would be the best choice in that price range right now. All new projectors are announced in September at CEDIA so expect more price drops on every projector. My advice is if you are thinking of buying a projector is wait until then.
