Yes.

Nope, no audio at all.

More than you can count. Though it seems to have improved lately, the
A1950 has a lousy reputation for reliability. Unless you can get it for
around $300, buy somthing from Sony, NEC, Mitsubishi, Panasonic, etc.
Models to look at are the NEC 3D, Sony CPD-1302 (or 1304 if you don't
need the 15KHz modes), Mitsubishi Diamond Scan (the only one I've seen
with both RGB and composite video inputs), I don't remember the Panasync
model numbers, perhaps someone else can add them.
