Epson launches ultra-short throw EMP-400W / EMP-400We projectors

by Darren Murph posted Jan 16th 2008 at 5:48PM


Before long, you won't be bragging about how many inches your projector can throw out. Oh no, you'll be boasting about how many LEGOs you can slide between the lens and the wall. Joining the quickly evolving short throw revolution is Epson's latest duo (each requires 2.1-feet to throw 60-inches), which both feature a native 1,280 x 800 resolution, 500:1 contrast ratio, automatic 4:3 / 16:10 / 16:9 detection and resizing, a ten-watt built-in speaker, VGA (x2), S-Video and composite inputs and an Ethernet port to boot. From what we can gather, the only differences in the EMP-400We are the additional security features (those pesky kids...), a longer warranty and a bundled wall mounting bracket. All in all, we'd opt for the £999 ($1,956) EMP-400W -- unless, of course, you've got a room / house full of mischievous youngsters, in which case we suppose it's worth a few extra hundred pounds to rest easy protect your investment.

Mitsubishi LDT461V 46-inch LCDBusinesses want to get their high-def on too, and Mitsubishi is happy to help out with the launch of the LDT461V 46-inch 1080p professional-grade LCD. Designed for digital signage, business, and classroom applications, the monitor comes beefed up from the normal consumer-level set with scheduling controls for timing presentations, motion shifting technology to prevent burn-in, and an expanded warranty program for easy repair and replacement. The set will be available this month for $4,995, just in time to start watching even more HD commercials at the mall.

Mitsubishi, Hitachi talk LED / laser technology

by Darren Murph posted Apr 9th 2007 at 9:03AM


Trust us, we know when these mega-corps put their heads together to create a buzz-eliciting presentation about the "future of HDTV," things don't always materialize as planned, but Mitsubishi and Hitachi each had a few interesting things to say at a recent pep talk about their hopes and dreams. Aside from alerting us all to the painfully obvious tidbit that HDTV prices are "unlikely to be stable" in the years ahead, Mitsubishi also talked up how 1080p will become an integral part of its forthcoming sets, and more interestingly, spoke about integrating "LED and laser technologies" into HDTVs. Also, it was stated that bigger screens would likely garner more attention as prices fell, and that x.v. Color would also play a role in 2007 / 2008 strategies. On the Hitachi front, it focused more on marketing its "well built flat panels" as "accessible luxuries," but also mentioned an expansion in its HDTV lineup, a boost in 1080p-capable sets, and a 60-inch flagship plasma that would "be sold only through A/V specialists." Now, who's betting it all comes true?
