Since I'm going to be moving around several more times before I settle somewhere, I am reluctant to buy a large rear projection tv. Large flat panels tend to be out of my price range, and I want something larger than is reasonable to get as a CRT. This leads me to projectors, which are inherently small (and screens can be rolled up.) My questions for front projection folks then are:

What models do people have? I've been comparing the 2k and under range but I really don't know what I should be looking for.

Would I realistically need to worry about lamp life (at least for a year or two) if I primarily used the projector for movie viewing only and not day to day tv watching? The lamps can be quite expensive it seems...

Are there any other general snippets of wisdom you have picked up in your projector search I might want to know about?
