Looking for a projector

[Moogle55]

Hi, I'm trying to get a projector, mainly to watch movies at home, but I'm not quite sure what I'm looking for. The ones i've been looking at are:

(Sorry I don't quite remember how links work)
I'm not quite sure what kind of specifications I should be looking for, but I'm looking in the $100 range, and I was wondering what you guys would suggest?

all of those projectors provide resolution that is basically equivalent to what an "old tv" was providing ... 480 lines. IF you are keeping the projected picture relatively small (less than 36 in) then they might be just OK. IF you want a large picture which most do using a projector, you need to get one with better native resolution and probably higher light output.

Those are also all 4:3 aspect panels so you will actually get less than 480 lines on letterbox sources (like HD TV and most movies). This is the cheapest one on Amazon that is at least 720p
