Question regarding widescreen projection sets 60" or 65"?.... (1 Viewer)

[todd s]

My 4:3 52" projection set is on its last legs. I am looking at getting a 16x9 projection set. I want something in the 60-65" screen size. It can either be HD ready or HD compatible. I would like to keep the cost under a $3500. I have seen some sets for that price. Does anyone have any suggestions? Any features I should look for? Also, has anyone heard of any price drops coming soon or did they occur already?

Thanks!!

I just bought a Mitsubishi WS65819, which is their 65" Platinum Plus and love it. Since the new models are out I was able to get this last year model for $2700 at Tweeter (it was on sale for $3000 after a $200 price drop, but I talked him down). This one does not have an HD tuner. The other big plus to this TV (at least for me since it went in the basement) is that it separates into 2 pieces.
