I am thinking that I want to start saving up and buy myself a 16:9 HDTV (at least 45-50") when I graduate college as sort of a present to myself. I suffer with a 27" with s-video input :frowning:
My question is, how much will they drop in price in say 12-18 months? I was at Future Shop yesterday, and I saw some TVs that looked pretty nice in the $2500-$3200 range (Canadian dollars)...so figure around $1800-$2500 in the US.
Would it be safe to say that comparable sets would be down to the $1500-$2000 (Canadian) range in that amount of time? Or even lower maybe?
Thanks in advance. My TV is embarassing but I can cope for another 1-2 years if it means I can get something really nice.
edit: here's an example at one set I was looking at: Toshiba 57H81 and it was at $3200 CDN.
1. Is this a good set
2. How much would it drop?
(well after doing some searches I found out it's discontinuined and will be replaced by the superior 57H82, but I'm sure it'll be priced the same)
