[HD Beat] Fullscreen hasn't been allowed in my house since I bought my first widescreen laserdisc - "Blade Runner" - many moons ago although I had to wait until 3 years ago to purchase a widescreen tv. The only fullscreen movies I own are those made before "The Robe".

[SnapStream Blog] How to watch Beyond TV recordings on a Sony PlayStation Portable (PSP): (before this latest rel of BeyondTV) What disappoints me is that Snapstream has not added the PSP codec directly to the archive format menus. The fact that I have to use PSPvideo9 to convert the video is silly, I should only have to use PSPvideo9 to copy the file.
[Gadgetize] Projectors vs Plasma, LCDs, Rear Projection: My X1 is not the brightest projector, so I do use some window coverings to get the full experience, but only because it looks so good I want to max out on the pleasure. With a $4000 plasma that's 25% of the size, I'm just watching TV, so I don't really think about improving it a lot.

[Mac.fiveforks.com] Ted's Blog: September 2003 Archives: Even with DVD's you don't get a perfect image (part of that may start hitting on the limits of what a projection TV can really do) but you do see a lot of detail. And with movies, because they are widescreen, I now get to see the whole 51" diagonal of the widescreen TV instead of the 23" diagonal of the letterboxed 25" screen.
