I know nothing about the Sanyo. I chose the 1000 over the Epson because the Epson is noisy and my projector is mounted directly over my head.
I have been trying real hard to not read up on the new projectors, especially the 2000 because I don’t need a new one, but knowing myself, if I start reading, I’ll buy something (how's that for comma use). What I will say is what little I have head about the 2000 has me very curious. They have made some improvements over the 1000. Considering the improvements and the fact that it’s HDMI 1.3, I’d go with it over the 1000. Prices on these things are pretty good now. (at least $1000 lower than when the 1000 first came out). You’ll probably want HDMI 1.3. It supports deep color, which doesn’t say much because it’s doubtful we’ll see that any time soon on disks, but one other advantage that 1.3 has over 1.1 is auto lip sync. Even though it is an audio perk, I suspect the display will have to be 1.3 as well as the source and the audio processor to establish a link. I read a blurb in my Denon 3808 manual that IF the display is 1.3, auto lip sync could be enabled. I haven't played with it yet, but that does give me some cocern. I am sensitive to lip sync and was looking foward to this new auto lip sync function.
