My wife has been wanting one for a long time, and they handed out the Christmas bonuses today. We didn't expect one this year, with the recession and all. She's been pointing out that we'd be able to sell our TV and simplify a bit, have less clutter, but still watch Netflix, if I got her one. I was done with the Christmas shopping a few weeks ago, but I'd really like to surprise her now. (Don't worry - she's not bit on forums, blogs, or the "social web".)
So, has anybody used a digital projector in the home? I've heard they have LED models now, so the energy use is much less, and you don't wind up spending $400 on a bulb every year, like the company does. Also, I'm trying to pick out a portable one - she loves PowerPoint, and makes up slide decks for a lot of local charities, so I think she'd like being able to take it along and show them off while they're in development.
But I don't really know anything about how these work. Is the time right as far as technology goes? Should I look out for anything in particular if I'm going to get her one? (If so, I'll probably drive to Fry's or something and get one locally, instead of mail order - but there's still time if necessary.)
TP for anyone who can provide a very helpful reply - which is (or at least tries to be) the norm.
