The new models include the NP3250, NP3250W, NP2250, and NP1250, all of which feature stacking capabilities (with stacking correction) for combining images from multiple projections. The NP3250W offers a WXGA resolution of 1,280 x 800, a brightness of 4,000 lumens, and a contrast ratio of 500:1. The other models all offer XGA resolution (1,024 x 768) and a contrast ratio of 600:1. The NP3250 sports a brightness of 5,000 lumens; the NP2250 has a brightness of 4,200 lumens; and the NP1250 has a brightness of 3,700 lumens.

Other features include:

  • Wired and wireless networking capabilities;
  • 2,000-hour lamp life (3,000 in economy mode);
  • ±30 degree vertical keystone correction and ±40 degrees horizontal keystone correction;
  • DVI, BNC, and 15-pin R GB connectors;
  • 5 watt stereo audio;
  • RS-232 and IR for control;
  • 802.11b/g wireless with optional card;
  • Wired networking through RJ-45;
  • One-touch image optimization;
  • "3D Reform" for squaring an image;
  • Built-in surface color correction; and
  • Computer-free presentations via USB and PCMCIA;
  • Direct power off; and
  • 64-step image magnification.

All of the new models are shipping this month. The NP3250 and NP3250W sell for $3,999; the NP2250 sells for $3,499; and the NP1250 sells for $2,999. Further information can be found here.
