Full review
I bought the PJ-TX10 2 months ago for £360 from ebay and i must say it's already been worth every penny. The best feature by far is the 2X optical zoom and the horizontal and veritcal shift. The features are great if you have a small room, for example my living room is tiny but i can still project a 80" X 80" screen from just 1.5m away from the screen.

The projector is rather large but quite light and fairly attractive looking with a nice silver/grey finish. It is super quiet, i didn't notice any humming when watching a film.

The colour and contrast are excellent and peform well against my bothers XGA Sony projector.

The ANSI Lumens rating isn't too high (800) but it doesn't matter because this projector isn't mean't to be a business projector, it's mean't to be used in the dark. I do find that i need to close curtains / doors in the adjoing rooms to the living room to achieve good viewing conditions. But in the Dark the picture is very bright with good contrast.

The connectors include component and S-Video connectors and should allow you to connect this Projector to almost anything.

The Lamp life is 2000 hours and a new bulb costs around £180.

The remote is easy to use and even glows in the dark, it has 5 preset video settings that allow you to easily change the brightness and contrast.

The remote also allows you to change from native 16:9 format to 4:3 and Wide settings. Keystone corrections are also easily accesssible from the remote.

My only complaint would be the "screendoor effect" which is comman on most LCD projectors. If you sit too close to the screen it looks (if you study the screen closely) as if you are looking through a wire mesh. I found that if your screen is say 1m across you should sit at least 2m back from the screen (then the screen door effect isn't noticable).

So in short a good value projector with some nice features, they don't manufacture these anymore but if you can find one on ebay snap it up.
