Hi guys, was originally looking for a cheap Lcd around 26" for my bedroom. I came across this: http://www.pixmania.co.uk/uk/uk/400926/art/opt oma/ds302-video-projector.html. I was just wondering what you guys thought about it. I mean it is a bit impracticle but it is a cool gadget. Anyway would this do the business? Also would this have to face directly onto the wall or do you get any thing which means that you can project from an angle. I am sorry if these are stupid questions but I am not very up with technology.

Your link does not work (you should always test it afterwards). It is because you have a full stop at the end.

Lets see if this works

Not clear if you want to use it as a monitor or as a TV. If you want it as a TV, you will need to get a tuner or sattelite receiver with an s-video output, and a separate sound system. If you want it as a monitor, well it's pretty low resolution.
I am not familiar with this model, but the ones I have used have all had adjustments on the computer to square up the image when projected at an angle.

There are three things to check up on:
1) Is it bright enough? Check reviews and compare the lumens.
2) What is the working life of the projector bulb?
3) What is the cost of a replacement bulb? Some cost around �200 a time!

Sorry about the link. Thanks for all your help. I intend just to use it for watching Dvds on and probably I will buy a freeview box aswell.
Also, it has 1650 lumens. I have absolutely no idea is this alot or not, so could anyone tell me if this would be enough?
