For anyone living in Massachusetts, this weekend is a tax holiday. If you wait until the the weekend to buy this (assuming it's still there), you'll save $52.

This product seems to have great feedback on amazon and tigerdirect.

 

Also,

 

There's a newly released Soyo DYLT032A 32" Widescreen HD Ready LCD TV for 949 after 100 mail in rebate at tiger direct.

The spec's look good, good contrast ratio and 8ms response time, just no consumer reviews readily available.

 

Something more economical could be the ViewSonic NextVision 17.1" Widescreen LCD Flat Panel HD-Ready TV for 449 at amazon. There's also a 100 MIR (available at datavisioncomputer dot c0m). so that would make it 370 after shipping.

 

Does anyone know more about the Soyo company? Are their products manufactured here?

 

thanks

If you read a certain other hot deals site, you'll see droves of people panning Soyo for their handling of rebates. They'll also rip Tigerdirect, so all in all, it's probably not a great combo.

 

I've had decent luck with Soyo motherboards - I know nothing about their TVs

Newegg had to step in for their customers after Soyo wasn't sending motherboard rebates.

 

32" 16:9 is a little small for a main TV, especially for watching 4:3 programming. 42" is more reasonable, or go crazy and buy yesterday's $1700 Samsung DLP 50".

hehe that would be nice but not everyone has 1700 to chunk around!

 

hehe.

 

Man thats bad to hear about Soyo, they are a california based company right? Does that mean their products are made here? can anyone check their mobo box and see where it was made?

 

thanks

The size thing really depends on the size of the room you are watching it in. In my living room, we have a 25" TV (4:3), and it's perfect, if not a bit larger than necessary.

 

This is a great deal on an LCD TV. I have been tempted, but I really don't need something like that. Just the thought of being able to connect an HTPC through DVI, my xbox, and my DVD player makes it so very "justifiable."

Would this be a good TV for mostly TV viewing? Some DVD's but mostly TV (via cable HDTV).

I guess it depends how far you sit from your TV. I'm considering getting it for out bedroom - the TV would sit about 10 ft. away.

I still have a 32" non-HD 4:3 which is a good size for 4:3 viewing but small for most of what I watch (widescreen DVD).

 

I'm trying to decide whether to buy this year or wait, since I'll probably move next year and by then the blu-ray/hd-dvd copy protection might be settled.

 

Today's $1500 Plasma deal looks good from the Amazon user reviews, though from one of them service might be an issue.

I think if there is no rush a good idea might be to wait for the new LCDs and DLPs with the 1920x1080 (true 1080p) resolution. There are a few (expensive) models out now - I just posted a deal a few days ago for a cheaper LCD model - but the big brands (Sharp, Toshiba, JVC, Samsung, etc...) should all be bringing out new models in the next 6 months. 1920x1080 is the resolution for the proposed HD-DVD and Blu-Ray standards that are currently fighting things out. So if you are going to spend a good amount of money for an HDTV, you might want to do whatever you can to make sure it'll last as long as you need it to.

Yes, my grown-up side tells me to wait, but my inner child is whining for a new toy. I got a nice bonus this year at the end of May and so far all I've done is send some money off to Schwab. Boring!

I agree that waiting is the best, especialy if you're looking for a larger screen TV. However, at these sizes (32" or lower) it's debatable how much better 1080p is going to look.

money is always an object ;)

 

for a college student anyways. The response time on this Olevia lcd tv is 12ms while the Soyo I mentioned earlier has 8MS. BOth can be had for the same price just about. I just wish I had more feedback on the Soyo but its relatively new. amazon barely started to sell it last month I think
