I saw gotapex.com had a circuit city listing for the Sammy 50" 1080p plasma with Xbox (and 2 games) for $999. This is screaming. I went to the link but it was off the CC site. Later that day...it was $1499 (which is still a good buy).
Id like to buy a "good" panel, with 1080p 47-52". The $999 price would be great.
I have no idea all I know is that the manager of the local Fry's told me that they want to get all of them off the shelves on Black Friday so they can use the space for Blu-Ray and other products.
Matt: While I wouldn't be surprised if you get some answers in this thread, I would post that very question in the "Displays' section of the forum (if I were you). You'll get a lot of answers/opinions there, I would think.
Thank you Mike but I should have mentioned that I am hoping to get this small TV as part of the Black Friday deals. Last year I picked up a 37" LCD for $499 so I am hoping that I can get a steal on a small one. I have noticed several companies offering the smaller TVs this year and some even include built in DVD players. Just trying to figure out the best deal.
FWIW-Last year after B/F I picked up one of those visio 50" plasmas last year at wally world for $995 and we have had great service from it, the picture is very good, in fact my wife makes fun of me, because I am constantly remarking how good the picture is, very pleased. YMMV
