 Yes, that's something I learned from Jean-luc Doumont (an excellent 
communications teacher, http://principiae.be - shameless plug): starting
a presentation with a title slide isn't very useful, because you only
get to the subject of the talk after explaining some context.  So the title
slide should be the second slide.  However, while you're waiting to start,
something should be projected already, and the title slide is good for that.
So I always repeat the title slide.

 Regards,
 Arnout
