RonP & folks with front projectors, how did you get the video source to the proj that is mounted on the ceiling? Did the long cable lenght affect the pq? And how did you hide the cable? thanks

I ran my cables (Power, Component & S-Video) through the ceiling, walls, and crawl space. The total length is just over 40'. I left 1 end of each cable un-terminated and installted the connecters after the wires had been pulled to prevent damage to the ends and to make it a bit easier to pull the wires. All of my video goes through the Component cable, the S-video is used for OSD data only. The HS20 pj did come with a combo-cable that has Component, Composite, & S-Video on one end, and a HDMI connector on the PJ end. It's just over 30' (10 meters) long and wouldn't work for my configuration.
The PQ is fantastic!
Hope this helps.

Thanks it does help! I am still thinking about taking the next step & getting front prog. Is the pq as good or close to your rear prog tv?Your Ht looks great what kind of screen did you get? thanks

Currently using a DIY screen, although an upgrade to a manual pulldown is probably going to happen this summer. Here's a link (http://tmkask.netfirms.com/Screen.htm) if you're interested in making your own.
I think the PQ for HD and DVD's is much better than my RPTV, and that's not just because of the size. The picture really is fantastic.
