I've finally decided to take the plunge on an HD widescreen RPTV. I'm armed with $1800, a 10% off coupon from Best Buy (valid this weekend), and basic information on the following five sets:
Panasonic - 47" Widescreen HD-Ready Rear-Projection TV w/ DVI Input & 2-Tuner PIP (PT-47WX53) $1499
Panasonic - 53" Widescreen HD-Ready Rear-Projection TV w/ DVI Input & 2-Tuner PIP (PT-53WX53) $1699
JVC - 56" 16:9 Rear-Projection HDTV Monitor (AV56WP74) $1799
Toshiba - 51" Widescreen HD-Ready Rear-Projection TV w/ DVI Input & 2-Tuner PIP (51H83) $1799
Philips - 55" Widescreen HD-Ready Rear-Projection TV w/ DVI Input & 2-Tuner PIP (55PW9363) $1799
I'm planning on primarily watching DVD's and Laserdiscs, with some HD cable viewing thrown in on occasion. I'm not sure I need the 540p upconversion or the 1080i upconversion that some of these sets do. If you have can steer me in the right direction, I would be grateful. Thank you.
