InFocus IN76 Hi-Def Projector

Since high definition technology in general is beginning to make it's mark in the major cities, there are also questions concerning the kind of displays that would be ideal for everyone's respective budgets and requirements. People are going in for HDTVs sized anywhere between 26 to 42 inches depending on their budgets, just so they can experience this boost in resolution in all its glory. But while commercial displays limit out at 56 inches, its the projector that can can give you life-sized imagery, at a comparatively lesser price tag.

Enter the InFocus IN76 high definition projector. What makes it stand out from the regular multimedia projectors is the (obvious) boost in display resolution (720p), and the fact this this one is make for a home theater projection system, that is it's meant to handle fast moving imagery and high frame rates unlike the office projectors that are mainly meant for presentations and corporate displays. You watch this one in action, and you'll know just exactly what I'm talking about.

Build & Features
When you think of projectors, you usually think of unattractive boxy devices that that will probably be hidden away on a mount while you only bother yourself with the projected imagery. But with the IN76, you'll probably discard the mount and keep the projector in a place where everyone can see it. Hiding a projector that looks this good would be a crime.

The sleek and curvaceous build of the IN76 would make anyone stop and notice. The black shiny finish with the metallic side-plates look elegant and will suit just about any decor.

It comes mounted on a desktop ball-socket stand, which makes pointing the projector in the right direction and angle a lot easier.

The remote goes well with the rest of the unit with its glossy finish. Of course! the glossiness also makes it prone to your fingerprints, so I wonder if that was really a good design decision.
