Big Picture Big Sound

Sony's highly rated 1080p home theater projector, the VPL-VW100 has garnered some rave reviews since its introduction last year. OneCall has just discovered three "open box" samples of the projector in their warehouse and they're blowing them out at about 35% of the retail price: just $3677.97 including FedEx delivery:

Sony VPL-VW100 1080p SXRD projector on OneCall (Open Box)

Though these boxes have been opened (store display units or customer returns), they are still covered by Sony's full 2-year parts and labor warranty, as well as OneCall's own satisfaction guarantee. Get a great deal on an excellent projector. Only three units are available at this price.

When you consider its 15,000:1 contrast ratio, full 1080p HDTV resolution (1920X1080 pixels progressive), and the fact that most 3-chip DLP and DILA projectors sell for at least twice the price or more, this is one phenomenal deal on a great projector.
