I think the relative low price of LCD or Plasma TVs and their superior picture
quality vs a projector will make the high quality projector for photos nearly
unnecessary, certaintly so for the home. For the office powerpoints, etc, you
do not need nearly as high resolution or high color fidelity, and reasonably
cheap projectors for that purpose are available.

For home usage:
My thought on Digital projectors is if possible avoid them until they
are prices are more reasonably. For now 1080P seems to be the standard
for home viewing (ala tvs, and such). For less than $1000 one can buy a
52 inch lcd tv (with digital input) and a 'cheap' computer and use the
computer to run a slide show off the tv.
However, 1080p projectors are still rather expensive.
I would presume; probably based on demand; that at some point 1080p
projectors will drop below $300 and then might be a reasonable alternative.
Naturally, if you are on the go the story is different but this is less
likely to be for 'home' usage :)
