These are what we got:

We paid $775 but I am told they are hard to find, that is about a hundred bucks more than I paid for my 36" CRT TV!
We have one of these running seven days a week six hours a day, I'll get back to you on durability in a few months.
I'm a run it till it dies kind of guy but I am definitely going to look at projectors when the 36 gets too old.
I work for the state so they keep a pretty tight hold on our spending and we don't get to buy too much high end stuff.
