Spiffnme, this is pure heresay, but I was under the impression that the Samsung DLP sets were upgradable in the sense you could have the DLP chip replaced with newer versions for cost/labor. Like I said, this is pure 'water cooler' talk from work and I have nothing to substantiate it, but might be worth checking out.
