Pros: Good picture, if it works.
Cons: It doesn't work!

Great image, HORRIBLE reliability

(1.00 out of 5) by schultzkp on Jun 28, 2006

Impressive Entry Unit

(4.00 out of 5) by maimonec on Dec 12, 2003

Pros: price brightness zoom
Cons: menu navigation
The Bottom Line: For the price, I'm not sure you could beat this for home theater use. Competitive products cost at least $600 more and often more than $1000 higher.

My BenQ arrived last night, so I set it up next to the Infocus X1 I've been using as a substitute. T ...
