TigerDirect: Sylvania LC420SS8 42” 1080p LCD HDTV $799.99, ViewsSonic XGA Projector w/iPod Dock $549
Looking for an HDTV or a projector for your home entertainment centre? You might want to take a look at these offerings from TigerDirect.ca then:
Despite not being a household name for television, it looks like Sylvania has produced a solid HDTV with the LC420SS8. From 9 user reviews on HDTVsolutions.com, this TV has an average rating of 4.2/5. Among other things, it features 2 HDMI inputs, DSub and more. It may not be the most fully featured set, but at $799.99 for a 1080p 42" HDTV, that's not something to complain about. In general, viewers seem to laud the unit for image quality.
As for the ViewsSonic PJ258D, its built-in iPod dock sets it apart from similar projectors. This unit has a native resolution of 1024x768 (XGA) and a brightness rating of 2000 ANSI Lumens. Laptopmag.com gives the PJ258D a score of 3.5/5 stars, as does PC Magazine. Both reviews find some faults (including a less than stellar built in speaker), but seem to conclude that it is a capable projector. Bear in mind that when reviewed in 2007, the projector also cost anywhere from $700-$1000.

The Sylvania is now listed at $899 (Sept 17/08). Not sure if this *was* $799 at time of posting, or if it was just a typo.
I actually went into TigerDirect to “try” and look at this TV. They had one out on display, but showing a regular TV signal. It seems like they’re not too swift over there.
But I think I’d be willing to take a chance on it at that $799 price level.
