Did you read the comments section below? :D What a bunch of retarded children.

The new unit is almost three times the size of the 42-inch model which is now the flagship model in the PDP market.

Surely the 62" was the flagship model?

But a small point - how are they going to install these? Two people can lift a 50" or a 60" if they are pretty strong, but a 102" is gonna be a horrendous lift to get it onto a wall bracket or whatever...

Oh well, at least it wont be me doing the lifting, just some other poor saps in the company...

And yes, it will be very expensive - for a while.....

I highly doubt that it would be designed to do that.

And Kosh, I am in the business... 99% of screens we install are on brackets, even 60"....

Post by: Liberator on December 21, 2004, 01:05:59 pm: Easier and MUCH cheaper would be to buy a high end consumer projector. Many of them can project an image at least as large and none of them cost more than ~$2000.
