I have just got this projector. Using HMDI 1.4a cable to connect to pc and ps3.
Usual limitation of 1080p @ 24hz with Nvidia Play software, but its works.
You need to use the Projectors Glasses for the 3d - RF Glasses are big and ghost if you look through the bottom part of the lens.
Machine is bigger than I expected and weights in at 4.5kg.
As this is my first projector I cannot comment on quality compared to others, but bluray's @ 1080p is a experience to be seen and the (ghost free) 3d is so much better than my little Alienware.

I noticed you have a H5360. I also have one, but with the pixels rapidly dying (for the second time...fixed under warranty the first time) after less than a year of use, I decided to pony up for the HD33.
The HD33 is not supported by Nvidia 3D Vision but is instead supported by Nvidia 3DTV Play. This is a slight distinction, yet as dx3ra said, it does mean you will have to use non-Nvidia glasses with the projector. I'm absolutely sure the reason they do this with 3DTV Play is so that glasses syncing is done at the display level, not the source level, to eliminate syncing issues when routing through a home theater receiver. I am using the recommended Optoma RF glasses and find the visual quality to be just fine with no ghosting as you'd expect from DLP. The RF connection means you don't have to worry about losing LOS between glasses and emitter which is nice. So it works well, but just factor new glasses in when considering the cost.
To use 3DTV Play, you'll either need to buy the software or leave your 3D Vision Emitter plugged in (despite not being able to use the glasses) to watch full 1080p sources or play games. However, without involving Nvidia, the projector itself can do SBS. So for instance you can start a side by side movie in Windows Media Player and then hit a button on the remote and the projector will go into 3d. You lose half your horizontal resolution this way, but it's nice to have this ability to quickly watch some 3D videos. This also allows you to watch broadcast 3D TV, which you would have needed some sort of adapter for on the H5360.
Compared to the H5360, I don't think the HD33 has as vibrant of colors. It did seem to get better when I played with the settings some. Lowering the brightness from default seemed to get better black levels and truer colors while still being plenty bright. The projector automatically increases brightness when going into a 3D mode.
Having 1080p is great and I can no longer see the pixels when sitting across the room on the couch like I could with the H5360. However, content in true 1080p is not as readily available as I would have hoped. Watching 3D in SBS mode or the 720p 2D signal from the satellite means some of the resolution is going to waste. If the current crop of 720p 120Hz projectors didn't have such serious problems with the DLP engines and pixels dying, it might be hard to recommend the HD33 for 3 times the price. As it is though, it seems to be a much better quality unit (feels/looks like it anyway...only time will tell how the internals hold up). Buying another H5360 is just an exercise in futility given how long they've lasted for me, but I couldn't go back to a regular TV after experiencing a 3D projector. While I sometimes regret the $1,500 plus glasses money I spent on the HD33, I never regret having it!
One disclaimer: I use this in the living room for watching TV and movies from the satellite or the HTPC. I haven't played any games on here, so can't comment on how the HDMI imposed 1080p@24fps/720p@60fps cap would affect quality. I suspect I would not be that happy with it, which is why I stick to my Alienware monitor for my 1080p@60fps gaming over the dual-link DVI.
