Received new lamp Wednesday and just installed... will try later today, received HC1500 less than an hour ago and replaced the HD1000U with it in my HT room... looks very good!
Going to put the 1000 in the Bedroom... can't wait to check out the new lamp, the HC1500 looks identical... btw, the lamp was easy to change...
Its also going to be my backup as my X1 has developed lines on the left side of the screen... I was just going to buy a lamp for both...
Have the HD1000U set up in bedroom with a Toshiba A2... right now a 100" screen, looks astounding... now for a sound system...(pc speakers with a sub)
new Lamp made a difference...

Bestbuy has the HC1500 on clearance for $599 for the last two weeks. I grabbed an HC
1500 new in box for $599 +tax last week! Killer deal!

I'm using my 1000 more than the 1500... been watching it every night until it ends up watching me.... (need to set timer) bought an inexpensive HT in a box (will go to a camper when I upgrade) works for now....
I now see that they have the 1600 out and I do not see the 1500 on projectorpeople website. I still have not bought a projector after all this time but waiting to get my place done before I buy one. I have been holding out for the LED light engine in these projectors and heard that they are going to be release at the end of the year. I hear they will be around $10K though.
From what I've heard the 1600 only has a 2x color wheel. I'll get it straight from their mouth next month at CEDIA.
I have one in the bedroom & kids game room/playroom as well. More portable, expandable and a better value that like size & featured "flat panels". I don't see them as extravagant at all; simply the smarter purchase.
It is a 2X color wheel. Is that stupid or what? Projectorcentral.com reviewed it.
Sometimes when I am sick or just want to lay in bed and watch a show. Sometimes the wife and I just want to be private and watch TV behind a locked door. I was unaware that a TV in the bedroom was so odd. I figured it was the norm; so why not have the best TV in that room like my den? I thought I was simply using common sense.
I love having a TV in the bedroom... although I need to get a firmer mattress as my water bed is killing my back
