Projectors

[Caliber]

So with the addition of a new player to our weekly DnD group several months ago, my group gained a projector. Hanging it form the ceiling, we attached it to a laptop and projected a digital map onto our table that we used to play. Unfortunately, our player (and his projector) are moving away (). Some other players have grown attached to our projector though, and are interested in obtaining one of their own for the group.

So, to you ENWorlders out there, help us out here. What is a good projector we can get for this purpose in the 200~300 dollar range? We'd like one still supported, so that replacement bulbs can be obtained when they are needed. Anyone have experience with this type of rig?

Thanks for your help!

To echo the sentiment since I know zip all about projectors. What resolution would you recommend to look for and if you are using a rear projection (like the one shown here http://tyrendes.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!3B5F578C5068731F!271.entry) would frosted acrylic be a good enough projection surface?
