$2300 at Circuit City.

I'm sure we'll be very happy together.

You get 2 HDMI inputs?

You bastard!

Now you just need the ultimate accessory. Congrats.

nice - I went with the Sony 55A20 myself - any reason you would have gone with Hitachi besides price?

Well, two HDMI inputs WOULD be nice - I think I need to find a box that'll double them up and then I can switch between the two..

definitely price! I couldn't afford the really nice Sony - and I wanted a BIG picture. little less screen door on the Sony, but I'm sitting at least 6 feet away, so that difference was minimal. A comparable Sony was $3800....to rich for me - especially since I used Circuit City's credit card with thew 18 months of no interest! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

So, if all I watch is sports, reruns of crack/cocaine law and order (Ice-T better win a fckin emmy), and arrested development dvd's, is it worth having that type of tv.? I know nothing about this.

I had plasma and was getting video game burn-in so I returned it.

I'm not having a major issue with SDE but deep down I feel that it's pretty obvious the quality isn't up to Plasma yet and not really close to DLP.

my next TV will be one of those big projection TV's that give me 2.35-1 HDTV - I'm gonna build a projection room, in other words...

someday....or else buy a cheap plasma for TV and keep the LCD for video games/computers - [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Nice purchase....enjoy.

I'm now the proud owner of some new 42" Plasma HDTV... I feel your joy. Unfortunately, I'm not unwrapping mine for a while since I'm moving out of my apartment in like a month. There will be a testing ceremony this week to make sure I didn't get a dud though.

Next bad-ass accessory, a new surround sound system.
