I just found out my room is 15 ft x 20 ft.

I have been having dilema on the projector too.

I will use it as a primary TV. I don't watch TV much (only during some news and ball games)... But I am really afraid that with projector, it is not practical since I have to dim all the lights to see the screen clearly.

The 50" looks so tiny with 15ft+ watching distance.

Any light on this?

You can get screens that can work even with some lights on. Not sunlight though 'cuz nothing can beat THAT. Those screens will cost extra but it will give you a better satisfaction when you watch your HDTV on a really big screen.

Or you could DIY one yourself but I don't know the recipe of making that coating...

If you opt for 65" (http://www.smartratings.com/review/e..._and_lcds/1063) you would go over your budget. I think this (http://www.smartratings.com/review/e...ma_and_lcds/61) could be the just enough without going over too much. Hope this helps.
