well i got the idea of selling my sony tv and going with a projector. my tv is currently a sony 60\" xbr1. what projectors would you recommend i get in a sub 2 grand price? will i lose allot of picture quality or will it be equal to my tv? and how important is the screen?

need a projector with hdmi connection. for both hd-dvd and blu ray.

ive been thinking of getting the optima hd70 or 72 but i was reading the reviews on another site and both are pretty much the same thing...
