FWIW, I'm using gdal for both reading and reprojecting (working with 
modis daily spectral images, mainly, e.g. MOD09GA/Q, in sinusoidal 
projection). I implement everything in python (gdal python bindings, 
numpy, scipy, etc), including processing, so I don't use the default 
gdal utilities much for this. Also I don't plot, I just output geotiffs 
which I view using openev or GIS software.
