must be über dark then. These 120hz pj's only work around 65" size with standard white matte screen IMHO, maybe 100".

BTW you should talk bout screens anyway...

He said he want a short throw. And you are wrong, I have an acer h5360 at 13 feet showing a 110 inch image and it is NOT dark. You said "only work around 65 inches" which makes no sense. It works up to 300 inches if u wish and I wish I can have my projector back further to make a screen image 120 inches (thats my 1.1 gain screen size) but I cannot because its already at the wall distance.

If you need a short throw 720p 3D ready projector, you only got two option - either Optoma GT720/GT700 or Dell S300.

AFAIK, neither support 3D vision out of the box, and most likely that can be done either with a spoof.inf workaround or firmware/hardware update through the manufacture (via RMA process).

ppl get used to it , and won't see its dark, but it is. You need a sample square of reflective screen material to compare.
