I need HD-TV help!!!

try going to newegg.com they got awsome tv's,, i got about a year ago an olevia 37" for a little under 600 and it works perfect to this day,, best investment ever,, + i use it as my computer monitor

I am a firm believer that Sony does not offer better quality than the other top brands but does charge more. I am not saying they are not good. I am saying they are not much better than the quality Samsungs and Panasonics. Toshiba has a few good ones. But like others have said. Spend a little more and get a top brand name. Also consider where it is going. Don 't sacrifice quality for size. Just because a LN or Vizio 60' is cheaper than a Samsung 48" doesn't mean you should go with the cheapo. They are perfectly fine for many people but if you are picky you'll want the smaller better quality TV.

Well here's the deal. I definitely wouldn't need anything bigger than a 42 inch tv. Even if I move out of my apartment (which I"m hoping to do possibly by the end of next year) I think a 42 inch tv would be more than enough.

I have a friend who has a 42 inch Sony LCD, and it's got a nice picture....great TV! He did pay about $2000 for it. In Sears, I noticed a smaller Sharp tv that had an excellent picture. I think it was a 32 inch LCD. I wouldn't want anything smaller than that TV. Those two brands I trust, but you know, I want to try to get as much as I can for less.

Should I be ok with getting a 720p tv, or should I just go ahead and get a 1080p?

1080p is the only way to go. Unless the 720p has a HUGE price break, you're basically paying for old technology.

I agree with TMC, AMD is a sexy Bitch and you should get a 1080P tv.

If you are going to spend the money on a Highdefinition TV, you might as well get the highest resolution possible.

Go with the highest resolution possible, you'll regret it sooner or later if you go with anything less.

PSSST - Look in Post #9. 42 inch 1080p Sharp for $1500 :)

Get the biggest 1080p you can for your money. If it came down between a $1200 720p and a $2200 1080p for the same brand and size, I'd spend the extra grand for the 1080. Once HD DVDs come into the forefront, you'll thank us for it.

Nothing is taped in 1080p waste of money IMO. All the NFL they use 720 cameras. I don't think any major TV station tapes in 1080p. Only way to see 1080p right now is through a HD DVD or Blue Ray. save the money for hookers and get 720.

I love my samsung hd-tv


Same here. Get a Samsung. :)

That's not a bad price at all! And, with it being a 42 inch 1080p altogether a better deal! :)
