Deviant5ouL Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 51" DLP for $700 last year at Best Buy. I wouldn't be surprised if plasmas and lcd's followed suit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

julz0420 Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 So anyone want to venture a guess on how much an LCD HDTV around 32in. will be and which store will have them the cheapest? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mystikal1 Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 So anyone want to venture a guess on how much an LCD HDTV around 32in. will be and which store will have them the cheapest? lol Last year BB had 32" for $470 This year I'm thinking less than $400. I think Fry's had one already for $399 a couple of weeks ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
julz0420 Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 I'm *hoping* around 350! Thats what I am budgeting for at least. The good thing, I allowed 100 for a sewing maching and I dont need anything overly fancy so hopefully I'll get it cheaper (or not at all if there is no good deals) which will allow a little more for the TV. Its a MUST this year for DH's game/computer room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
note235 Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 hoping for 42-50" for under $800 and possibly 1080p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schwoozer Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 Fry's did have a 32" for $399 around Memorial Day. I have a feeling 32" could very well hit $300 on BF. As for 1080p at $800, I seriously doubt it. I hope I'm wrong, but $800 for a 50" 720p would be VERY ambitious as prices stand right now. 1080p is just too new to see it that low, I think.

mojaxs34 Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 sams club has a 42 inch vizio right now for $800 and thats the regular price. Miejers and walmart both had 42 inch televisions last year the day after for $500. so i dont think it will be hard to find a 42 inch for around $500 this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If LCD TV shows same behavior than laptops, there are good chances for $500 42 inches LCD TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 I'm fixing to pick up a 47" Samsung DLP HDTV at REX for $899, pretty good -- right? http://blogs.rockymountainnews.com/denver/milehightech/Amazon.com%20Samsung%20HL-S4666W%2046%20DLP%20HDTV%20Electronics.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krstee Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Ok, I am a newbie to this discussion - but could someone direct me to some info on the difference between Plasma and LCD. Also, what is DLP? I assume 1080 is better than 720 - but is it really THAT much more cost prohibitive? We are thinking about getting a new TV for the bedroom - and (crosses fingers) one for the living room. I am the researcher in the family - and I have forbade DH from buying ANY tv until at least we get closer to BF. I just need to study up on what's out there - all we have are analog tvs (our bedroom one died during a lightening storm 2 weeks ago - so that's what causing the interest in a new one). Thanks!

elena_398 Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 Whats a good TV for a bedroom? I have no idea what I need to look for (brand, etc). My husband wants a flat screen for the bedroom wall (LCD I think). Whats the price range of these and do you think they will be available on BF? Im thinking 32" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamieva Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 krstee couple of things LCD is cheaper generally then Plasma. Up to 42" LCD is best, over that Plasma is best. Generally. No TV channels broadcast in 1080p at this time and may not for some time. The gap between 720p and 1080i to the naked eye is very small. 1080p will only make a huge difference if you have a HD DVD player too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackpotladi Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 Does anyone know if they fixed the "burn-in" problem on the Plasmas? Also, be careful in buying the off brand/no name LCD TV'S. Our news just did 2 segments on this. They're calling them the "Throw-Away TV'S" cause they don't have the parts to repair some of them. They recommend not buying them, or if you do, to purchase an extended warranty, after first reading the fine print. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DramaQueenLucy Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 I am really wanting a 42" LCD for the living room but only if they are going for $500.00-$550.00 or so on BF, does that sound about right or do you think that they will be going for more? I am also wondering if there is going to be any small LCD's on sale for the kids rooms. I just cleaned DS9 room and a nice LCD would leave so much more room then his 4 year old SDTV.
