I have been in the market for a new tv for a couple years. Budget holds me back.
I am inclined towards Plasma or DLP RP or maybe LCD RP. I have ruled out CRT RP because of burn in/small children factor (though I did see a descent looking Panny at Sam's and thought, if I get that I will unload it within 2 years and not care).
My problem is that it seems no matter how long I wait it isn't soon enough. Watching any movie on my old 27" Trinitron isn't cutting anymore. If I wanted to look at something that small 16:9 I'd take up stamp collecting. I haven't even opened my Raiders trilogy because I won't watch it on a small screen (I bought it when it was released!)
Unfortunately I can't spend more than $1500-$2000. I also hesitiate to buy anything without an HD tuner, knowing I will probably regret it withing a couple years.
What would you do?
Cheers.
