HDTV Market is heating up!
 Right now Sony is introducing a new technology called SXRD (Silicon Xtal Reflective Display or something). It is supposed to have stunning blacks and brilliant colors. They have a 70" unit out right now with this technology and the sticker price was $12,000. Two new 50" and 60" units are coming out with 4k and 5k MSRPs. This just goes to show you where prices are heading! JVC and Samsung (as well as Sony) will be introducing sets that will up-convert ALL signals to 1080p. This apparently presents a more 3D picture, with excellent detail and quality. While this won't mean much to smaller HDTVs, bigger TVs (55-70) will be really able to tell the difference. It's an exciting time....we'll see what happens!

Yeah, We purchased out Phillips HDTV Plasma for about 6k a few months ago. Now if you go to BestBuy or Circuit City, you will find the same thing about 20% less than the retail price. On Cablevision, Each month they are adding about 2 HD channels. Right now we have about 30 of them.

I just bought a Panasonic 50PX50U. Got the deal through a friend.
$3600 with delivery. I am a happy happy man.. It arrives at the end of August.. For the record though, I am only buying a Plasma so I can mount it in the bedroom. Otherwise I still much prefer the cheaper, better picture on a rear projection big screen or the LCD. I think plasma's are a fad and the ONLY reason to get one is if space is truly needed. Once you have all the gear hooked up, the speakers, etc. You might as well have put a tv "in there" and saved a bunch of money, gotten a bigger screen and a better picture. Just my .02. B

Plasmas are wonderful... if you want to hang your TV on the wall. Aside froom that, save a few thousand bucks and buy a rear-projection LCD. We bought a Sony 50' rear-projection LCD HDTV (man, that's a mouthful) in March and we could not be happier. The picture is stunning!
You're right, though, Chris. Prices are becoming VERY competitive lately. Good news for us consumers!  Juan
