Anyone have any experience with inflatable screens? Any recommendations?

Thanks Paul. I didn't do a search here. My bad!
It is interesting to read about the inflatable dome. I did some tradeshows for minolta that required a 20' inflatable dome. Always a pain!! Hehe

I am wondering about the durabilty of inflatable screens. How do they hold up over time?

There is a guy in Provo that has one of the Harkness blow up's. He has had pretty good luck with it overall. One time he was doing a movie in the park event and the park dudes forgot to re-program the sprinkler system.... Yep! The sprinklers went off about 9:30 pm and everyone was doused... projector and player got wet but the screen was ok. The moral is don't ever believe the park dudes re-programmed the sprinkler system. But the blow up's do hold up when wet and if there is ever a big flood you have a for sure boat awaiting you, I just don't know how big a motor it will take!
