Don't mind.. the problem is that I got it fairly recently based on many reviews on AVS. I saw it in person and fell in love. I looked at the Sony ones as well the $5-$6k VW60 they seemed great based on some review but when I went my local higher end electronics installer Epson blew me away.
The only problem is that indeed the bulbs are more expensive.. around $400.. but they do last pretty well too, at least what they say.
I'll tell you, for example the VW60 Sony I looked at that was more expensive then the one mentioned here was still a bit off with colors and wasn't as sharp as I expected.
Panasonic AE2000 was my first choice because it was the cheapest and proven but when EPSON revised it's Epson Cinema 1080 with the UB version they literally killed off the sub $3000 market. I think it's absolutely the best projector for the money and easily competes with much much more expensive projectors. And it's not really because i got it, you can see people really praise it everywhere. It really is great, sharp, colors POP amazingly and blacks are excellent even with a bit light in the room.
