    Is something really great coming out in 6 months

    in computers and hdtv there is always something better on the way, if you wait for it you will never buy anything, because after that there is always another step up coming, 1080p may be worth waiting for though, but then the next deal may be 1080p on a LED millimeter wide tv or something...

    i live on the wisconsin/minnesota border, maybe an hour from the minneapolis airport, do you come up this way? and have you worked with the new jvc hdla tv sets? just wondering if they improve a decent amount with calibration, or if anyone has done them yet since they just came out

    Calibrating My Television ...?

    I hate service contracts, but....

    i paid 250 for 5 years on my new samsung dlp, it was 500 but the salesman said he would sell it for 250 which leads me to beleive they make a ton of money on them, if you really want one ask for a deal, but 400 bucks for three years is alot i think, its a good start on a new tv;)

    http://product.samsung.com/cgi-bin/n...LP5674WX%2fXAA the samsung site says 2000:1, but i have heard they have said different numbers as well, maybe it was supposed to be 3000 and ended up 2000

    samsung 5674w

    from what i hear its 2000:1 6 segment, but i have seen ads online saying 3000:1, the place i bought it from the website said 3000, the label at the store said 2000, strange, but it does look nice, anyone have one of these calibrated professionally? just wondering how much difference it would...

    larger tv, or projector

    ok, measurements, room is not as wide as i thought, so a screen to fit in the recessed area would be about 70 inches diagonal to look centered, pulled out 8 inches then it wouldnt matter, room is 9'9" wide, 17'1" long, the part sticking out on the screen side is 8 inches by 28 inches, the back...

    larger tv, or projector

    i'll be able to measure the room around 4:00 central time, the room used to be a bedroom so it also has a closet in the back, that sticks out, makes it hard to place the projector i think, depending on how far away it needs to be, i see on a review that someone said it should be shelf mounted...
