The EX70's HDMI or component video input should be used for video.The EX70 is essentially identical to the PowerLite Home Cinema 700 except for the case color (black vs white) and resolution (1280x800 vs 1280x720). Unless you prefer the white case, I would choose the EX70 to get the extra 100K pixels.Office Depot has it on sale for $699, free shipping. I just ordered one.

Perhaps the USB connect is a very bad choice for video and DVD connection. There should be an HDMI connection for video/Blu Ray. The reason I am concerned is because this projector is essentially the exact same projector as the new Epson Home Cinema 700, which have been waiting for a review on. It's a 720P projector meant for Home Theaters so I wonder if the USB provides a very bad video signal and the HDMI is much better. If anyone know more please comment.
