Well iwent to Best buy and circuit city today and was looking at all tvs in my $600-$1300 range.(Upgrading from 3 yr old 27in pip phillips/magnavox) I was contemplating all day on weather to get a normal 36" tv or a 51" I saw. Dont know if i want to send the money.Basically the run down is this.
I have digital cable in my apt, even though i have yet to hook it up yet. I have an XBOX and GAMECUBE and do play games say 2 hrs at a time most times occasionnally for more in one sitting. I sometimes will play 2-3 hrs. turn it off for a couple and go back. I also watch dvds. Maybe 4-5 a week. Now my question is what is the best option for me.
I basically looked at these tvs and all seemed great.
36"
Toshiba 36a42($700) Really nice TV. Looked almost HD
Panny 36D32 ($800) Looked nice as well. Had pip
JVC 36320 ($700) Looked ok.
PANASONIC 51" HDTV 51hx42 ($1200) plus $300 service plan
that was a open box
retuned item from christmas. It was out onthe floor playing and was missingthe box. It also had scuff marks along the bottem(boticible but didnt care) Lastly it had a wood chip on the back of the cab. Couldnt even see. After talking to the mgr he offered it for $1200 with the option for a service plan or not.
Anyway. an input would be great. Dont know if i should WAIT or BUY NOW
