MD:
I have seen the Sony 70" that you showed the link for. I helped my dad buy (and set up) the new generation 50" Sony some weeks back (last model before the SXRD). Pretty good picture, at that price point.
However, having seen the SXRD Sony sets (50" is now in stores here, 60" is another week out), and having watched the overpriced 70" Qualia (same technology), I really think you should look at the SXRD before pulling the trigger. The 60" SXRD will be around the same price as the previous generation 70", and the pictures are not in the same league, IMHO. The SXRD deserves to be called an XBR, the 70" didn't. There was a real smoothness to the SXRD, much more lifelike. Also, the contrast was incredible, blacks showed up like the DLP TVs have had for some time.
I have been watching a 34" widescreen XBR800 CRT for several years, waiting for a big screen that had a picture good enough to make me switch. I think the 60" SXRD will do it.
Just my $0.02
