... Infocus ScreenPlay 7210 High Definition DLP Projector and InFocus 76-inch 16:9 Projector Screen HW-HTSCREEN76. The projector deal alone makes this an amazing woot. Look at the review on CNET and you'll see that it might just be even better than amazing. Hmmm. That's a whole lot of money. A whole lot. I'm sure some of you can gather it up. Rob a Kwik-E-Mart or something. You'll be glad you did. (note: don't do that)

... InFocus ScreenPlay 7210 HD DLP Projector. Yeah. It's been so long since woot wooted a projector. And even longer since they wooted a real good projector. This one is probably a big pick-me-up for wooters gone cold. Love it. Cnet gave it great reviews. I trust them. So should you.

p.s. Why aren't more people picking IASIP on that poll? You know you love it. Charlie is THE cutest.

... nice... in focus hd projector... great.... check the home theater projector reviews and you'll see... definitely nice... anyone who says this is too expensive is nuts... check the lowest comparison shopping price... then check woots... AND its new... then check the reviews... well worth it... but yeah, way to expensive for me... but for high rollers, a no brainer... i suppose.

...this one is not very easy to find on teh comparison pricing engines... so i had to go with the next best and find other optoma 720p projectors... i did the rankings on this one based soley on how i thought the search results looked per engine... cuz that's whats most important when comparing a product to not the same product... i think...anywho...projectors, as you regulars know, are key in playing life size guitar hero... one of my favorite party activities... so i say get it... woot projector deals are usually pretty darn good... too bad its not a cooler color.

...while i do not claim to have a lot of experience with infocus dlp projectors, i DO have a lot of experience HEARING about the grandness that is the InFocus home theater projector line... everything that i hear is solid... no real flaws, etc. etc... so based on this woot... i say get it... but first check the comparison sites to make doubly sure... cuz nothing stings more than when you purchase the wrong home theater dlp projector.... and just in time for the SUPERBOWL XLI COMMERCIALS... it's like woot has an outlook calendar with things like this marked on it or something... huh?... p.s. i would LOVE to see a woot commercial at the superbowl.
