It's about $900 - $1400. As far as a brand name Epson, NEC and Toshiba make some pretty good projectors. Overall, there are a few things to look for with projectors. Obviously the size and weight if you are concerned with portability, and the options it looks like it has for focusing, image adjustment, etc. Furthermore, the more contrast ratio and ANSI lumens the better, a decent ANSI rating is around 1600, but some go up to 2000. This basically is the brightness intensity of the projector, and a higher lumen rating helps to see the image better in a room that has a lot of ambient light...
