I'm hammered. Full report on Sunday. I'll say this much - the new JVC firmware for the current laser projectors totally rocks. The best laser dimming on the new mode 3 I've ever seen. Even did a few torture tests.

No two ways about it - the star of the show at Cedia for me was the new JVC firmware coming out in November. Dynamic laser dimming works fantastic now - best I've ever seen. And there are other improvements too.

Sony - I thought the XW5000 looked very sharp. The demo material and the room did not allow one to judge contrast or black levels.

The XW7000 demo was weird. They left the lights on with an ALR screen. The screen had a lot of surface sheen / artifacts which were distracting. Hard to judge the projector at all.

They didn't show the XW6000. 

The GTZ380 demo looked great, as you would expect from an $80K projector, although they mounted the screen way too high for some reason.

Stewart screens were most everywhere.
