Epson's Dreamio series of 3LCD projectors give us plastic vertigo

It's not much to see... ah hell, it downright hurts to look at, but this 3LCD projector swivels 180-degrees and includes a DVD player so that's gotta count for something right? Right!? That heaving box of white slabbery is Epson's EMP-TWD10 Dreamio 3LCD projector. We'll run down the specs, quick-like so you can look away: 1,200 lumens, 1,000:1 rated contrast ratio, 720p resolution, 140W E-TORL lamp, 2x 10W speakers, 1.2a HDMI and 28dB operational noise. There, now go. Masochists; you go ahead and peep the 480p, EMP-TWD1 little brother after the break but really, don't, we beg you.

Hey, we warned you.

I'd buy it if it's under $600. I never really look at my projector that much anyways.

Anybody remember the movie series "Short Circuit" from the 80's and 90's?

Please, click the link and see the difference...and tell me if Epson is fresh out of ideas.

I'm confused by all the complaints about it hurting your eyes. What's the problem with it? These appear to simply be the Japanese counterparts of the kickass MovieMate line.

Unlike a lot of look-alikes, I really don't think that's much of an argument, Jim. It might look like the head of some Japanese robot that I'm forgetting, but it looks nothing like #5.
