    Tried to send this last night but the software upgrade that wasn't ate the post. So here goes again. Our family's current TV, a 30" Zenith was purchased a decade ago and is finally in its endgame. I don't want to spend any more than $850 on a 30" HDTV, and 2 Philips models (both with HDMI)...

    Alias Season 4 Packaging Gripes!!

    I'd have hoped for one more Garner commentary - In Dreams. Just her, relating how she dealt with going the Alan Alda on MASH route, as an actor-director for the first time. That was a pretty good episode; who knew she had it in her to *direct*?

    HTF Review: Desperate Housewives - the complete first season - RECOMMENDED

    FYE in Philadelphia has the set on sale for 44.99; my copy has the booklet, the rebate form and a scratchless disc 5. FYE has this set in its own $10 off list of DVD's and games unrelated to the combo deal with Lost. But you have to choose one or the other if you get it at FYE.
