Topic:   My first real projector purchase. But am I making the right decision?

Ok so I bought a EIKI XGA980UE off ebay for $150 and it had a bad blue LCD, but still worked and was fun for my first projector, still works after two years too (the bulb) So I've been eying a couple projectors from tigerdirect.com The Sharp DT-100: and The Samsung SP-U300W The Sharp is native 854x480 and the Samsung is 800x600 I do wan't the 16:9 native so I will probably go with the Sharp, however.... My Eiki is 1024x768 native. And I was getting about a 100in diagonal image on my screen with it. Mainly this will be for xbox 360 and HD movies as well as some dvd's, I was comfortable with my Eiki's resolution, it looked good to me, but my question is how MUCH of a downgrade will it be to 854x480? Also from 3LCD to DLP, is it going to make a drastic difference and would I be happy with my purchase or should I just save up a couple hundred more to go for a higher native resolution?

Topic:   Help me buy my second projector cheap

I'm getting ready to sell my first projector. (Eiki xga980ue) due to a bad blue lcd (slight blue hue on screen) I bought it for $150 on ebay not knowing about the bad lcd, however I made the best of it and took it apart to learn the whole 3lcd system and adjustments myself, managed to put it all back together and fix a few things. Not bad for my first projector. Anyway, I’m looking for something in the $400-500 range around the same res (1024x768 native or better) and decent lumens 1000-1900 for dark in home cinema viewing. Now I really had minimal knowledge about pj's when I bought this, and got it by chance. This pj was fine for the room when it came to brightness, most of the viewing was at night or I just covered the windows anyway. But I did most of my viewing by SD dvd. The native res of my current pj is 1024x768. Since I am just viewing dvd's then should I look for a less expensive PJ with a lower native resolution for best picture quality? However I do plan to eventually make a HT-PC and have all my playback get upconverted to 1024x768 or 1280x1024 so I should find a PJ with those native resolutions correct? Also do most projectors do 16:9 even if they have a 4:3 native?

Topic:   EIKI Red or Blue LCD needed

Hello, My blue LCD has turned out to be bad, so I was wondering if anyone had any old EIKI projectors that dont work or are willing to part out, I need a Red or Blue LCD for the xga980ue. Also interested in models around the same year as they use the same lcd panels. Any EIKI projector from the same era with a 1.3 TFT LCD will work (1024x768). Please contact me if at all interested and if you can provide pictures that would be extra special ;) I do have paypal. Type: 1.3" TFT LCD (3) Native: 1024x768 Pixels My PJ info: http://www.projectorcentral.com/EIKI-LC-XGA980UE.htm

Topic:   My blacks are blue! Dichroic filter help.

Ok so after further investigation of my 3lcd Eiki lc-xga980ue I noticed that my blacks are blue especially the top corner of the right screen is an uneven blue smear like shape. When other colors are on the screen you can't really see them but my the screen definitely has a blue hue to it. Now is this a polarizer or a Dichroic Mirror/filter? My assumption is its the blue Dichroic filter Do polarizers have anything to do with the colors or is that solely the Dichroic Mirrors?
