3.0 out of 5 stars Be cautious., February 9, 2009
This review is from: Epson MovieMate 55 480p 3LCD Home Theater Projector with Built In DVD Player (Electronics)
I wrote a scathing review of my experience in purchasing this product, at first, when Electronics Expo, the Amazon-vendor, would not accept a return on this product. My decision to return it was based immediately on observing the "screen door" appearance (resolution)compared to another DLP model a friend let me borrow and try. Also, the zoom feature wasn't as good. Having said that, though, the convenience of this design, with the DVD player and sound built in, is a very nice thing, and in the end, I decided to keep it and make use of it for that reason alone. I also got an email and phone number from Electronics Expo trying to make good on the deal. The rep was reachable by phone, and tried to make me happy. I recommended they find a way to say "you may not return this item if you purchase it" show up somewhere on the cart check-out page before you click "complete purchase." So, let the buyer...

5.0 out of 5 stars Why Buy a Big TV?, January 6, 2009
This review is from: Epson MovieMate 55 480p 3LCD Home Theater Projector with Built In DVD Player (Electronics)
The Epson Movie Mate is a tremendous product. Instead of purchasing a large screen LCD or plasma television, I opted to go this route. Let's face it - these days, everything is online. Hook your laptop right up to this bad boy and grab your instant play Netflix or check out the latest offerings on Hulu. It's absolutely amazing! The contrast ratio on this puppy is only 1:300 but it's all you need. Consider that a commercial theatre is usually just 1:150 - why would you need 1:1000????

5.0 out of 5 stars So far, so good, December 5, 2008
This review is from: Epson MovieMate 55 480p 3LCD Home Theater Projector with Built In DVD Player (Electronics)
I got this projector about a week ago and here's what I can say so far
1. The Model 55 is very easy to set up. The Quick Start user's guide is very good and it took me about a minute after I got it out of the well-cushioned package to show a movie on DVD.
2. Everything, including the PC and TV inputs, worked flawlessly.
3. The device is very portable with carrying handles built in
4. Controls on the remote are predictable and logical. I spent little time referring to the user's guide.
5. The video quality is quite good and almost up to TV LCD quality
6. Having stereo loudspeakers in the unit works very well and makes the system very portable. Sound quality is reasonably good.
It's too early to tell about reliability, but right now it looks like Epson has a hit on its hands. It's priced right and easy to use.
