Look out DLP. This is one of the most full-featured and least expensive 1080p projectors we've seen yet. Panasonic's recent LCD front projector efforts have impressed with a smart combination of high performance and features at excellent prices. Panasonic's first 1080p projector retains the dynamic iris its predecessor used for inky blacks, and it comes in at a Minimum Advertised Price of just $4,000 (although list is $5,999). Available to consumers now.
