So there’s some big news out for Viewsonic buffs–they’ll be coming out with a pair of new projectors, one in the DLP bracket and a second in LCD.

The DLP, a 120Hz projector, features 3,700 lumens of output and a 2,800:1 contract ratio. It’s slated to including a composite input, an S-video jack and a VGA input, is available now and retails for $949.

The LCD projector offers a projection strength of 4,000 lumens and a 2,000:1 contrast ratio, as well as a stated lamp life of five thousand hours. It also comes with sixteen watt speakers, the projector is available now for $1,749.

These are pretty fair dimensions, even if the prices are a bit salty in comparison to other available models, and no HDMI definitely doesn’t bode well.  I’m not quite sure that it’s a good value in comparison, but value is a subjective quality at best.  Both models are now available, so if you want to find out, you’re welcome to try.
