Shoot. I don't think I can spend that much money right now. I'll probably pick up the 717 and get a new projector somewhere down the line.

Do you have any projectors you would recommend? Preferably within the 300-500 range.
I just did a quick amazon search and found this...
The reciever you linked is good enough right? It has 2 component inputs (I only need one for the ps3) and 1 output which I can connect to the projector. It has 4 hdmi inputs and I'll only need 1 for directtv. I've decided against the laptop because I can stream media from pc to ps3 which is...
Actually I don't really need to hook up the laptop. I can stream from my pc to ps3 so I wouldn't need it.
If I were to buy a new projector, I would still need to buy a reciever right? to hook up the speakers?

He has his projecter mounted on the ceiling and has wired the cables through the wall into an adjacent room.
Here are some pictures for reference...
