Sony's latest HD projectors: the VPL-VW100 HD SXRD and VPL-HS60

Sony projectors VPL-VW100 HD SXRD and VPL-HS60

Take that, Qualia: Sony persists in continuing to announce devices in Japan we probably won't get to hack it on, but we're not anyone to argue with their new VPL-VW100 HD SXRD projector. The three-SXRD (Silicon X-tal Reflective Display) 1,080p monster has a 400w Xenon lamp, 15,000:1 contrast ratio, and all the digital inputs you're gonna need—but a matching pricetag of ¥1,365,000 (about $12,500 US). Almost as an afterthought they announced their new VPL-HS60, too, which is a 10,000:1 contrast ratio 720p device which will hit your bankbook for a significantly smaller chunk of change: ¥409,500 (about $3,750 US).
