Sorry...I know on avsforums they have something against posting your actual purchase price. $1579.06, and that includes shipping.

Ok, guys. I last question from me. is it your understanding that the 1 year warrantly included in the purchase includes bulb replacement for 1 year?

I called up Sony to confirm (bwcause my credit card doubles it), and a woman told me, NO, bulb is 90 days, which kinda shocked me. I called back, spoke to a different rep, and he says YES, 1 year on bulbs as well (although, to be honest, the first woman seemed more confident in her answer).

Now I'm thoroughly confused. Are bulbs included within a year?

I would expect that it's pretty unlikely that your bulb would go out sometime between days 31 and 365. The bulb is not going to wear out in a year, or five, or (most likely) ten. Infant mortality is another story, but still seems unlikely enough that I wouldn't base a decision on a 90-day vs. 1-year warranty.

great deal. congrats!

will be interested to hear what you think, since I am in nearly the same situation as you. same budget, same restrictions, as I mentioned above. I had been leaning towards the 42 Samsung DLP, but lots of people here like the Sony LCD Proj...so who knows.

I think I will be buying from amazon though, since I've whored $900 worth of gift certificates!

I was pretty much between the same 2.

I saw them side-by-side in Circuit City and thought the Sony had a brighter/sharper picture.

Definitely not a huuuge different, but at the same price, and many happy owners giving great reviews on many sites, I felt like I made the right decision. I'm sure the Samsung would be an equally right decision.

went in Best buy today. i have a friend who works there who told me that all Tvs are going to be cut significantly in early to mid november because of holiday sales. so you probably shouldnt buy anything in the next few weeks.
