  X1 is a fantastic Home Entertainment system
  I purchased the X1 just before Christmas (delivery in 36 hours!) to be the video source for my Home Entertainment system. I use a computer to supply DVD input and for computer games. The Xbox and game Cube are connected through the s-video input. I am projecting on a 84 inch diagonal white screen. Viewing distance is about 11 feet.

  DVD movies look perfect. There is no visible pixilation and blacks are close to true black (in film mode). Part of this is no doubt do to using a computer for the DVD input. I believe a direct s-video input may not be as good (I have not tried this though).

  The video game systems also look great. Four player Halo on a big screen has to be seen to be believed.

  I also have a TV tuner (Hauppage)in the computer and astonishingly, the TV image (at about 65 inch diagonal)is excellent.

  The only reservation would be that the light output is not great (especially in film or video mode) so you need to use it in a room that can be fully blacked...

  
  

  Amazing Value, but more on the way
  I have logged about 350 hours on my X1 and am still impressed by what I see. I thought that DVDs looked amazing with s-video in, but Hi-Def is even more incredible, almost 3 dimensional.

  Slight rainbows from the 2x color wheel may or may not bother you. I am a broadcast professional and highly critical of image quality, and although I notice them, they are not a deal breaker, and seem to diminish the more I watch.

  If I were buying today, I'd give serious consideration to the newly announced Screenplay 4805. Although it looks like the X1, it is "enhanced" in many ways. For another $600 you get DVI in with HDCP (trust me, your gonna want this when HD-DVD hits the market), a 25% brigher bulb (the X1 when set-up for video without the white wheel segment, is less than 500 lumens), a default calibrated set-up for video out of the box, and a 16x9 image panel instead of 4:3. Instead of 800x600, it's 854x480. This means no vertical scaling on DVD material down to 800x450...

  
  

  Infocus X1 DLP SVGA projector.
  This is simply an amazing product for the price. Don't let the SVGA resolution fool you, the images are crystal clear and since it's DLP there is virtually no visible pixel structure, as is common on LCD projectors. I couldn't be more pleased with my purchase. Just go to a local home theater store and view another DLP projector with a 2x colorwheel speed and make sure you don't see rainbows before you buy it, because if you see them you'll just end up returning it. If you don't see rainbows, it will be the best thing you ever buy, unless you just bought a porsche or something.
