My viewing distance is right about 10', I'm actually considering getting a smaller set myself right now.

The only issue with the projector though is that my viewing distance is a tad under 8FT, so I am not so sure what a 100+ inch screen would look like from that view
yeah, 100+ would be pushing it (less then 1.1) but then again with a projector you can always shrink the size of the image by either using the zooming or installing the projector closer.

PS don't forget TVs are measured in diagonal while projected images in width

Good point, the diagonal vs. width factor is something I overlooked.
