Topic:   short throw dilemma

Hi folks, I have a particular dilemma. I need to project an image 10m high by 6m wide from a throw distance of 8m...I was looking at the Sanyo XP55 with the LNS-W31A short throw lens, projecting on its side.... But it doesn't quite make it. So I thought I should post here and see if any of you experts have a better idea. Which projector/lens combination will get me the biggest image from 8m throw distance...? thanks for your help, Baruch
