Greetings all,

Before I start rambling on about this new Epson projector I’m reviewing, and, since this is my first official blog, I’ll take a moment to introduce myself. My name is Art Feierman, and I’ve been involved in the AV industry most of my career, since getting out of college in 1972 (go Penn State football).

I’ve owned a major AV online reseller, but am having even more fun as a reviewer of home theater projectors.
Turns out, it is a natural fit.

Launching a blog is something I’ve been meaning to get around to for more than year, but have just been very busy growing my business: Projector Reviews.

BTW, I plan to post at least twice a week, with updates on reviews in progress, as well as assorted tidbits on products, how to get the most of your home theater, and useful tips on choosing wisely.

Here goes:
Welcome! A first look at an all-in-one projector I am currently reviewing - Epson’s MovieMate 72. Very, very, cool!

OK, I’m in the middle of reviewing Epson’s new MovieMate 72. With a little luck, the review will post Sunday night 12-16-07, but probably it will happen Monday night.

Here are some preliminary thoughts.

Talk about a great last minute present for the whole family, the Epson MovieMate 72, finally brings a reasonably high level of overall performance to those craving an all-in-one home entertainment projector. The Epson has a built in DVD player, plus reasonably good sound (hey, it’s a small box), and for the first time, a true HD resolution picture (720p resolution). Read the rest of this entry »
