It looks like it may already be happening.

I'm thinkin about this bad boy right here:

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

heh, it's a procrastinator's game... the longer you wait the better off you are

just get something now because holiday sales are far off.

That's the article that my gizmodo link referenced.

i wouldn't say no to one of these:

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.

Cool, I think I will.

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

nice! it has a ATSC tuner!!!

so does every tv made after 06

we can only hope amidy was putting forth the sarcasm.

i was interpreting it as such, indeed

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

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

Explain the Hz to me please.

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

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

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

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?

but seriously... watch a child as they watch tv. they are in a fucking trance.
