Poll question: HDTV: What's better? Projection TV or Big Screen?
Like everybody else I am considering a big screen for the living room. The other day I went to the new Tiger Direct store and browsed the big screen HDTVs they had on offer there.

I also got another option to think about: front projection HDTV. HD projectors are running about 700-900 at TD. So the cost is attractive. OTOH, Big TVs can be mounted on the wall and swiveled to where you need them.

I'm torn. What's your vote?

1. projectors suck
They're good for dark rooms, but even medium lit rooms will have them at a disadvantage.

Plus, flat screens (particularly LCD) are much lighter.
