    The only thing is you need a dark room to watch TV. It works but you'll be watching in the dark. It's like a movie theater!

    How many US dollars would 7.50 pounds be? Around $14, I figure?

    These fresnel projection TV kits really blow chunks. You DO get what you pay for. If you're looking for a way to get a nice big-screen TV / home theatre feel without spending the thousands of dollars for a widescreen HDTV, check out this site:

    http://www.lumenlab.com/

    The Lumenlab projector uses real optics, a much more powereful light source, and is generally a much better solution than a fresnel lens re-projecting an image from a TV.

    I've thought of building a lumenlab projector in the past, but I've already got the HDTV so I'm not in that much of a rush.

    Diplomacy is the art of saying "good doggie" while looking for a bigger stick.
