From all I have read, this talk of "4 times the elcetricity use of LCDs" just isn't the case at this point.

this is one subject I have spent loving more than cigars. this is to me what hockey is to you. I will tell you that I agree that the pricing and anal marketing didnt help Pioneer.

If I don't get the Elite I will buy the JVC projector and screen
