Ihr habt es schon richtig gesagt eigentlich. Ihr vergleicht einen Acer DLP Projektor mit LCD Projektoren. Konstruktionsbedingt ist es "nicht möglich" so starkes Lensshift in einen DLP Projektor einzubauen, wie bei einem LCD. Daher ist der Vergleich unfair. Die meisten DLP Beamer haben daher überhaupt keinen Shift, da sehr aufwendig. Übrigens heißt die Mehrzahl danach Modi und nicht Modies ;) Danke für den Test!
The only problem with H9500BD is it's based on old DarkChip 2 (DC2) - worse colors, contrast, sharpness than with DC3 (720p H5360BD is on DC3 - strange policy by Acer...)
I've had DC2 equipped higher end projector (Mitsubishi HC3800) and lower end DC3 chip projector (Optoma HD67N) and the former sweeps floors with the latter when it comes to image quailty. :) I agree, DC3 would be nice but I wouldn't worry too much about the chip, it's what's around it that matters.
All politics aside, it's pretty steep price discrimination between different projector brands. Acer is taking the Panasonic route. For example: Epson EH-TW6000 (1350€ = $1723) vs Epson 3010 ($1795), equivalent machines, price in Europe only 95%. Acer H9500BD (1999€ = $2551) vs $1699 in US. Whopping 152%! Not a hard choice.
Zum Lensshift:

Well... EU is rich, we have EURO, no crisis like in the US, old people live in EU.
So all 100" plasmas and 72" LED/OLED TV's and cheap projectors go to the US only :)

My thoughts exactly! I don't understand why it's a billion dollar machine in Europe while it's relatively cheap machine in US:
