I just bought the XR-32S early this week for $475 (ad special at Fy's) not too bad for a 2500 lumens projector.
My primary use is for projecting movies, outputted from my Macbook Pro, onto a Gemmy 12-foot inflatable screen in the backyard. This definitely does the trick in terms of brightness.
The contrast looks good; picture quality is a little more than sufficient. If you get close, the picture does look a little pixilated when projecting from some distance. Slight squares are present, but not too distracting. Indoors, the picture looks great.

Advice for other Mac users--
The SHARP XR-32S DOES NOT have Mac DVI input, I needed to buy a separate DVI-VGA converter. It claimed to be Mac-compatible out of the box - definitely not the case.

The SHARP XR-32X is Mac compatible requiring no converter cable.
I wish I would have known that before buying.

This projector is being used for a new start-up church. The projection is crystal clear. The keystone effect easily fixes the trapezoid picture formed when the projector isn't level with the screen.

This is a nice projector, arrived in new condition. The down side of this projector is that the fan blows to the side and it is hot air. Just get used to standing on the opposite side from the fan.
