Default FocuPix Fixed Frame Screen From HTDepot.com

I am getting ready to purchase my Very First Screen.

I Just Purchased a Sony Projector from Big Daddy a Few Weeks ago(LCD 720p/1080i).I finally started using it Yesterday and have been using a $4.00 White Sheet from Wal Mart,ThumbTacked on My Wall.
I was Very Pleasantly Surprised With the Image I am Getting Now.

I am on Social Security Disability so I have a very Small Amount of Spendable Income Each Month(So this is a Big Factor in Determining What Screen I Get).
And my HT Room is only a 10ft X 10ft in size.(A Big Factor In The Screen Size I am Getting)

Since my room is so Small,I can Only get A Throw Distance of 7ft 11in.I have the Zoom(1.2:1)Set to Full and get @ 81 inch Diagonl Image.

At First I had planned on Getting an Elite Screens 84 inch 16:9 MANUAL Widescreen.

Its in my price range and I have heard far more good experiences with Elite Brand Screens then I have Heard Negative Stories and Comments.

But I would REALLY Love to Have a Fixed Screen in place of the Manual Screen.
So I have been looking at the FocuPix Fixed Frame Screens sold at HTDepot.

I Haven't found a lot of information on these screens.And almost NO information on their Fixed Frame Models.

So does anyone have any Info or Experience with FocuPix Screens?
I can get their 85 inch(80 Inch Viewble)Fixed 16:9 WideScreen for About $30 to $40 more then the Elite Screens 84 inch Manual Screen and 6 inch Mounting Brackets.


So does FocuPix Make Good Screens?
And are their Fixed Screens as Easy to Assemble as Most Other Fixed Frame Screens.
And to Hang It is it just Place the Screws in the Studs and Set the Screen On the Screws(like hanging a Picture)

So if Anyone can Provide ANY Information On The FocuPix Fixed Frame Screens(or ANY FocuPix Screens)I would be Very Greatful.

And if you have any comments on the Elite Brand 84inch Manual Screens I would Love to hear those as well.

Thanks Sincerely For Any Help and Suggestions.

I may buy that very screen. It's cheap and seems good.

I do wonder though if it's ANY better than a DIY screen made of Blackout Material which is what I currently use.
