Sanyo announced they will ship a new 7000 lumens Full HD professional projector in October. The super-bright PLC-HP7000L produces 1920x1080 resolution with 10-bit video processing, and lasts about 10,000 hours without maintenance. Six optional lenses and 360 degree vertical lens setting allow the projector to be placed in a wide range of locations.

While the CEA would love for over-the-air television signals to end in favor of viewers having to pay for service, the National Association of Broadcasters is still on the consumer's side, arguing that the percentage of homes tuning into OTA signals is currently over 14-percent* and still growing. Still, many HDTV owners aren't aware of the DTV spectrum which provides free over-the-air standard definition (SD) and high definition (HD) channels from local broadcasters. So how do you get HD channels without a cable box?

If you're a Blockbuster customer you may have received a postcard offering "Unlimited Free Rentals" though July 4th. Well, here's the catch. You get a free 1-day rental whenever you rent a new release for $2.99. The free movie must be a $1.99 rental or less, and you can only have one out at a time. The promotion doesn't include games (or, oddly enough defensive driving courses). New movies include such titles as Black Swan, Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part. 1, and Kung Fu Panda.
