I love this product. I used it in conjunction with a 12 diagonal inflatable screen for outdoor movies during the summer. Also hooked up wireless speakers a few times as well as the X-box...after seeing how well mine works and how easy it is, my brother-in-law ran out and purchased 2 for gifts. My daughter uses it for trade shows when she travels..very easy carry on.. cant say enough great thins about it....

If you can find it, this little Epson is a good machine. I wanted a projector unit that would play DVDs because I didnt want to have to drag too many components outside every time we watched a movie. I did buy this projector for outdoor movies, not for indoor watching. If youre looking for an indoor projector, I think you could have a better setup with a ceiling-mounted projector and regular video inputs and surround sound.
I opted for the non-HD projector because I didnt think it was worth all the extra money. Having said that, the picture that is projected is very clear and nice, so if youre able to tell the difference between a regular DVD and an HD-picture, you may be able to tell the difference with the projectors as well. Im not that picky.
The sound that comes out of the 2 side speakers is actually pretty impressive. Its enough that we dont need to add speakers if theres just a small group watching a movie. However, when we brought it out for a bbq, we did plug in computer speakers (through the headphone jack) for a more projected sound. Depending on your use, the built-in speakers may be adequate.
Its extremely easy to set up. You plug it in, insert a DVD, and pretty much go from there. The remote allows more fine tuning than the buttons on the unit (zoom, picture aspect, color settings, etc), so definitely dont lose the remote! I like that you can manually zoom the picture in or out without having to movie the projector itself. In the box = projector, dust case, power cord. Thats it. I think anything that plugs into a tv with video/audio inputs can be plugged into the Epson.
I dont know why this unit is out of stock everywhere. Even the Epson store doesnt carry them. I also havent seen them in stores. I had an order in with Amazon for one, but after 3 weeks I hadnt gotten any shipping notice, so I cancelled it and went searching for another online vendor.

PURCHASE YOUR EPSON PRODUCT THROUGH AN AUTHORIZED DEALER OR FROM EPSON DIRECTLY.
This is not a review of this product, but rather a word to the wise... Two and half months after my purchase of an Epson 10000XL scanner through Amazon, it stopped working. Through the followup and tech support process I learned that, because I purchased through Amazon, the manufacturer nor the seller would honor the 1 year warranty. Epsons position is that Amazon is not an authorized seller and that they merely act as broker for what can often be re-furbished or second hand merchandise.
So, should your purchase break or malfunction, as mine did, you are out of luck with regard to warranty.
This lesson cost me $2400.00

I ordered the projector to use for camping. We think showing big movies around the campfire will be great fun this summer. In the meantime we have set up a theater room in the family room in our basement. We painted a white screen on the wall. The picture is very good we are enjoying older movies again and watching new ones is even more exciting. It was very easy to set up and run. My husband even hooked up our surround sound to it.
