Help me selecting a projector for my HT

The budget is $5500 and I need a DLP/LCD projector (and screen soon afterwards) new/used to show on a 100-120" screen size. It will be used primarily for movies with DVD's as the source. From what it looks like to me, a used/demo DLP from Sony/Runco seems to be the best way to go. What should I do?

I have the Sanyo PLV60HT, 106" Dalite screen (0.8 gain) and ceiling mount--all together was $5000. The Sanyo 60 has since been replaced by the Sanyo 70. The Sanyo 60 can now be had for $3100, and the 70 for $5400. they are 16:9 native panel LCD. I have nothing but praise for the picture quality and reliability of my projector.

Well, at the time my choices were limited. My primary criteria was a native 16:9 projector, which ruled out all the CRTs. My choices at the time were the Sony 11 and Sanyo 60. The sharp 9000 hit the market just after I purchased.
