aww.. crimeny. heh, i tried. im sure its not hard to make projectors, i dont know why they are so much.
But they all do sort of the same thing, and that is rearrange what you thought was real, and they remind you of the beauty of very simple things. You forget, because youre so busy going from a to z, that theres 24 letters in between... You turn on... tune in... and you drop out...

hmm so would picture quality be reduced if i use a hdmi to dvi converter??? Or should i just stick with component cables since the hdmi wont even come with the PS3. Since i dont have hdmi on my tv anyways. Would there be a significant difference between the two options or so small that it doesnt matter?
PS3...it only does everything(that Sony allows it to)

HDMI to DVI will transmit only the video portion of the signal. The multichannel audio plus video needs HDMI to HDMI.
This is the ideal setup for the PS3 given the single HDMI output:
VIDEO
PS3 -> HDMI out -> HDMI enabled receiver -> HDMI out -> HDMI display
AUDIO
PS3 -> HDMI out -> HDMI enabled receiver -> 5.1 or 7.1 speakers
If your TV has only DVI you can do this:
VIDEO
PS3 -> HDMI to DVI cable -> DVI input on TV
AUDIO
PS3 -> Digital Optical/Toslink -> Digital Input on Receiver -> 5.1 or 7.1 speakers

@dblbogey7: That Pearl projector should be mighty sweeeet! I chose the high-contrast grey Da-Mat screen for the Panny based on my ambient light situation and because it lowers the black levels. It has a gain of 0.8 which suits my pj and room conditions best.
Here's Dolby Labs press release on the PS3:
http://investor.dolby.com/ReleaseDetail.cfm?ReleaseID=211947
5.1 Dolby Digital will be available for gaming. 7.1 DD and TruHD will be available for BD movie playback. However, without analog outs the only way to get Dolby TruHD will be thru HDMI. Time to upgrade my audio system with an HDMI receiver. LOL!

I don't know if anyone has said this already or not, i didn't see it when i skimed through.
But if you are talking about new tv's for your ps3 you better not forget about getting a HDTV with hdcp support or else you just screwed yourself for upcoming movie releases. Once they inplement this new copywrite protection you will only be able to play games and watch previously released movies.
If you are getting the ps3 purely for games this wont matter to you, but if you have the next generation movie player too, why not use it? thats just my opinion.

Sorry to change the subject, but LCD tv's are the best for gaming, not plazma,not projector(s) or any other type. Dont tell me other, b/c I tried them all and most people say LCD. The others are not bad, but #1 LCD 4 me.

yeah I feel you Stefan , thats why we are here everyone is putin in there thoughts and views if they tryed them out so we all can get the best Tv for our selfs , I think all tv's have there pro's and cons like the plazma has a brite crystal clear picture but you cant play on them long or you get burn ins , and the projector is dark and not as brite as the lcd's or plazma 's but they have the biggest picture which puts you deeper in the game . its does look great if you have buddies and you want to battle you have all that screen to view but one thang I want to know is will the HDTV 1920 x1080 projector be more clear then and LCD ,have you tryed one Stefan with this many pixels 1920 x1080 ?

blacGoku - HDCP is like DRM for next generation move players. I don't know the date that this will take affect but supposedly about a year a two from now all moves will have hdcp on them. if you tv doesnt have this chip or whatever it is in it it will downscale your 1920x1080p picture to 960x540p.
Just figure if you are gonna pay 1-2 grand on a tv, you might want to get the right one. At my local best buy and circuit city they each had one tv with hdcp in it. so check it out.
here is a pretty good site with really in depth information
http://www.digital-cp.com/home
and here is the wiki article on it if you trust it

honestly if you are looking at brand new tv's you aren't going to see as big a difference in picture anymore. DLP's have better contrast ratios, but the lcd's and plasma have closed the gap considerably. and the burn in effect has been almost completely taken out of the picture with the 2006 model, i'm sure the 07's it won't be an issue on any brand. we the difference in all three of these display type are actually very little if you actually know what to look for. and can ask the right questions.
as for projectors, i don't know much about them but from most of the video people i talk to it is the cheapest route for a huge picture.
