If so, how do you rate it compared to say a "50" flat panel telivision. And do you have any suggestions for the type to purchase, lighting requirements of the room, set up (including hiding the wires), etc?

When you say "projector" that can mean two things: a single-piece set incorporating rear-projection, or a two-piece (front projector and screen) like a movie projector. For ordinary TV viewing, the rear-projection type is usually used; front projectors are more expensive and require darkened rooms, but they give you a real theater experience. The main advantage of flat screen TV is their overall size. The big advantage of rear-projectors is that you can get large pictures (>60") and reasonable cost. The rest is mostly a matter of taste, since all technologies have made significant improvements and will give you good pictures. They do look different (LCD, Plasma, DLP) so you should look at the sets and decide if you like one type better than another.

Projetors are cheaper and better.
They are very sharp - you can move them, you can size the image
We watch full screen in the living room, bedroom, - takes 5 minutes to move.
By comparison the big TV s are limited and expensive.
