November 2003–ProjectorCentral– "The PLV-Z2 unquestionably sets a new benchmark for high quality video at a price substantially less than today's HD-ready big-screen TVs...never before has this image quality been available at such a low price. People who just shelled out $3000 or more for a big-screen TV may wish they hadn't once they see the PLV-Z2 in action. A variety of features make the PLV-Z2 highly user-friendly, not only as a dedicated home theater system, but as a simple addition to the typical living room or den. Overall, we believe the PLV-Z2 has the features, the high performance, and the low price that will make it one of the best-selling video projectors of all time." – Evan Powell

October 2003–ProjectorCentral–"We called attention to Mitsubishi's impressive XD300U last January. Later, the company released a brighter edition of the same projector, the XD350U. The only difference between these two models is the XD350's brighter lamp that generates an additional 400 lumens of light output. We were enthused about the XD300U when we first saw it. However, with recent drops in average street prices, has become an outstanding value in today's market. Given its exceptional video performance and 4000-hour lamp life, it is hard to beat its current price and performance. Thus we are adding the XD300U to our Highly Recommended list for home theater. The XD350 is every bit as good a performer, but the incremental brightness and shorter lamp life is better suited to business applications where the highest light output from a portable projector is required. However due to its high 2000:1 contrast ratio and exceptional on-board deinterlacing and scaling, it can double nicely as a home entertainment projector as well." – Evan Powell

March 2003–Projector Central–"Optoma is getting very serious about home theater. The new Optoma H56 is the strongest evidence of that fact to date. We liked what we saw last year in the earlier edition H55, but with the H56 Optoma takes video performance to a whole new level. It is a beautiful product with very little to complain about, and as of this writing we are enthusiastically adding it to our list of Highly Recommended Home Theater Projectors." –Evan Powell

February 2003–PC World–"The EzPro 737 scored considerably higher for its sharp text...It comes with a well-designed remote that has an easy-to-use navigation pad and laser pointer...you can adjust the color balance and white segment settings...the unit's 2-watt integrated mono speaker sounds better than the 1-watt speakers found on most of the models we tested. UPSHOT: A fine lightweight choice for mobile professionals, the EzPro 737 packs enough power to handle medium-size group presentations." –Richard Jantz
