HI,
Haven't been around in a while and recently moved to Texas and I find myself in need of a new TV.
The only retailer I know in the area is Best Buy so will most likely purchase from them unless other Houstontoniens (sp) have other options... I am considering Amazon as there would be no sales tax correct.
My viewing distance will be about 10 ft in a reasonably dark room. the majority of viewing will be a mix of blu ray, HD dvd, HD TV (mostly sports - football and golf) and possibly some ppv, and some gaming with either a playstation 3 or and xbox 360 - tend to play racing games and golf. (The PS3 will probably end up being my blu ray player and gaming console if I decide to go that route as it seems to me a combo of x-box and blu ray player is more expensive...taking opinions on this too!!)
I owned a 61 inch Samsung DLP for 4 years in my previous life and LOVED it but I think a switch to an LCD is warranted given the size of my room and that I do want it to hang on the wall.
I do not know whether i need 120 hz or not. Will 60 hz do.
Any advice is much appreciated.

My price range is about $2K give or take a few hundred.
