Kudos to Mitsu for bringing this tech back for another go around. Hopefully people will give it another look.

The current 72in"er (1080i) is getting long in the tooth and that recent Avatar blue-ray coming through a PS3 fat via HDMI had the old boy begging for refresh rate mercy! It was hard to watch at times. What's the hertz on this bad boy anyways?

Seeing as how you can get a Panasonic AE4000 for $2k, AVR for $500-$1k, moderate surround sound system for $2k, PS3 $350, 120 inch Carada screen $800 you can have a full set-up for less than the cost of this on set, it’s pretty much a no brainer. Just get a nice $2k LCD or plasma for the living room and have the PJ for your real movie watching.

Imo, the whole viewing angle shenanigans played by different manufacturers, is just marketing hype. Let me ask you this, what is the central focal point of your living room? The tv I bet so that means that your furniture is arranged so that every seat available has a good view of the tv. At normal viewing distances (10-15'), you'd have to be sitting at a pretty extreme angle to have noticeable picture degradation.

Even on my cheap 60" set, anywhere in the living room has a nice, vibrant, and crisp picture. At stores, one views the set maybe 6' back and of course at that distance it's going to look like crap.]]>Jun 23rd 2010 2:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/23/mitsubishis-laservue-hdtv-makes-triumphant-75-inch-return-beco/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/23/mitsubishis-laservue-hdtv-makes-triumphant-75-inch-return-beco/Jun 23rd 2010 11:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/23/mitsubishis-laservue-hdtv-makes-triumphant-75-inch-return-beco/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/23/mitsubishis-laservue-hdtv-makes-triumphant-75-inch-return-beco/Jun 23rd 2010 4:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/23/mitsubishis-laservue-hdtv-makes-triumphant-75-inch-return-beco/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/23/mitsubishis-laservue-hdtv-makes-triumphant-75-inch-return-beco/

While I've been waiting for a non-projector solution for a long time to upgrade my old 65" to something larger, I won't be doing it unless the display is 4k. I've see a few 4k solutions at CES a couple of years ago as I tend to focus on larger formats and oh yes, my friends, they are coming. That isn't to put down mits for going after a sadly underserviced market for people looking for affordable larger than tiny 65" screen TVs and who don't want a projector. I applaud them but I'd gladly pay $10K for a 4K solution in the large size solution.]]>Jun 23rd 2010 12:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/23/mitsubishis-laservue-hdtv-makes-triumphant-75-inch-return-beco/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/23/mitsubishis-laservue-hdtv-makes-triumphant-75-inch-return-beco/Jun 23rd 2010 12:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/23/mitsubishis-laservue-hdtv-makes-triumphant-75-inch-return-beco/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/23/mitsubishis-laservue-hdtv-makes-triumphant-75-inch-return-beco/Jun 23rd 2010 3:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/23/mitsubishis-laservue-hdtv-makes-triumphant-75-inch-return-beco/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/23/mitsubishis-laservue-hdtv-makes-triumphant-75-inch-return-beco/Jun 23rd 2010 3:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/23/mitsubishis-laservue-hdtv-makes-triumphant-75-inch-return-beco/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/23/mitsubishis-laservue-hdtv-makes-triumphant-75-inch-return-beco/Jun 23rd 2010 3:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/23/mitsubishis-laservue-hdtv-makes-triumphant-75-inch-return-beco/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/23/mitsubishis-laservue-hdtv-makes-triumphant-75-inch-return-beco/Jun 23rd 2010 4:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/23/mitsubishis-laservue-hdtv-makes-triumphant-75-inch-return-beco/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/23/mitsubishis-laservue-hdtv-makes-triumphant-75-inch-return-beco/
biggest issue is price, for 65" laservue, Mitsubishi over priced them, now 2 years later for $1k less, they bring a 75" model. great.

but.. still think it needs to come down to $4-5k. its pricey. but i do know my eyes don't lie, best pic available today.]]>Jun 24th 2010 11:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/23/mitsubishis-laservue-hdtv-makes-triumphant-75-inch-return-beco/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/23/mitsubishis-laservue-hdtv-makes-triumphant-75-inch-return-beco/http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=1258420]]>Jun 23rd 2010 6:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/23/mitsubishis-laservue-hdtv-makes-triumphant-75-inch-return-beco/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/23/mitsubishis-laservue-hdtv-makes-triumphant-75-inch-return-beco/Jun 23rd 2010 10:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/23/mitsubishis-laservue-hdtv-makes-triumphant-75-inch-return-beco/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/23/mitsubishis-laservue-hdtv-makes-triumphant-75-inch-return-beco/Jun 24th 2010 11:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/23/mitsubishis-laservue-hdtv-makes-triumphant-75-inch-return-beco/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/23/mitsubishis-laservue-hdtv-makes-triumphant-75-inch-return-beco/
I see a Laservue set all the time at a local electronics retailer (Electronics Expo) and once they moved it out from a corner to the middle of the showroom floor it's poor off-axis viewing became readily apparent . According to HD GURU it uses a Dark Chip 4 Digital Light Processor (DLP) , so it IS a DLP set albeit one using a laser light engine instead of a bulb or LED array . And no rear projection set has a picture as sharp as a flat panel as some definition is lost during the projection (from the DLP microdisplay imager to the screen) process - the picture is softer than on a flat panel , that's just the way rear projection works . I had a RP set for my first HD set and appreciate the technology for what it is , not for what some people seem to think it is . But at those inflated prices , especially in this economy , I don't think Laservue can survive .

As for those who dont like the "depth" of the tv, not all of us care about depth, we all don't need a flat panel. which in many cases means lower quality picture. for a 14-16" deep tv to work great. i will take that, no problem. i prefer the high quality picture over it being thin any day.

problem here for me is that the 65" model should have easier 3d setup than its current plans. which i don't think allow it to use the cheaper 3d kit.
