I'm truly not sure where to place my focus at this point...
I want it to be a home theater first, before being an awesome D&D tool. Would that mean something with a 16:9 ratio would suit me better...since most of my DVDs are widescreen?
Also, anything geared towards "home theater" use seems to have terrible Lumens ratings. But I've read over & over again how bad of an idea it is to use business-specific projectors for multimedia purposes like movies & games.
I've also read that LCD projectors give you some better controls for adjusting where your projected image shows up like H. and V. Shift, and a much better zoom lens (before needing to resort to keystone correction).
And to watch out for DLPs with slower color wheels.
Such a hard decision....
A few that interested me so far are:

If you had to replace your current projector with a 3k budget what would drive your purchasing decision? Any recommendations?
