I realise I'm a little late to this conversation, however I have a couple
of questions:
1. What problem are you trying to solve by replacing the projector with a TV?
2. Where do you want to put the TV in the clubroom?
3. What use cases are you targeting (and will a TV be able to fully
replace the role of the projector)?
