Or you could just buy the JVC and whatever external video processor you want and have just as much if not more performance than this rebadged Pioneer for less money! I'm sure all they did was a few tweaks and a different video processor.

No kidding! For that price, I'll take a JVC DLA100 plus the companion 2.35:1 anamorphic lens. Fed from Blu-ray, there won't be any need for additional video processing.
Constant height front projection. Yummy!

This projector had better be far superior to the rs2 to justify that price point but I would predict it will be essentially the same.

$20.76 per lumen... What a bargain!

If it's anything like the RS2/HD-100 (which it no doubt is, heck even the specs are the same) then the 600 lumens on this projector is still bright enough for a 130" screen in a dark room. If you have a bigger screen then you probably have a big room with a big budget and can afford something more anyways.

600 Lumens?!? Even in a dark room that isn't very bright.

It's possible that it's a conservative number. Spec lumens often deviate from real lumens, depending on how far the maker wants to push the settings.
I thought that LCoS wasn't very good with contrast ratio, if it's really anywhere near that good then that's good.
