Anyone have any likes or dislikes towards this particular model? It's normally $1400, now its $1250.

just get something now because holiday sales are far off.

That's the article that my gizmodo link referenced.

not least because "its powerful surround sound effects produce a magical environment of wonder that is filled with excitement and joy."

It looks like a quality set with very good specs. Go for it.

[xer0s]

Cool, I think I will.

[Sanction]

You can get it cheaper with free shipping if you don't mind waiting a few days.

we can only hope amidy was putting forth the sarcasm.

[MKJ]

i was interpreting it as such, indeed

[Doombrain]

Cool, I think I will.

it's only 60hz. get a 100hz TV.

[shaft]

yeah, he only has $1000 budget though. Its 120Hz here in the US.

[xer0s]

Explain the Hz to me please.

[xer0s]

You fuckers. Just when I had my mind made up, you throw this Hz bullshit at me...

[Therac-25]

that sounds like what i would call refresh rate if it were a crt

60Hz is the frequency of na ac power, so i'm assuming that has something to do with it being 60 / 120 in na and 50 / 100 in eu

[Tsakali]

surely someone is taking teh piss, I never heard anyone quote refresh rates as a relevant sale point for a TV...although it does have an effect on lcd monitors I'd assume it's the same with TeeVees

[creep]

It is indeed the refresh rate. It will make no difference on HD broadcast or current iterations of digital cable (might in the future, but probably not soon), but with a good dvd player, a 360, or a ps3 you might notice a difference in some cases.

I wouldn't weight it that heavily, to be honest. But if you can afford the 120hz, why not?
