After searching and researching, stops-and-gos, and just about everything else there that goes into purchasing things electronic, I finally bought an HD Flat-panel TV.
It wasn't easy. The road was fraught with options, considerations and, we'll a few sleepless nights.
Philips was the only brand I would considerer. My old TV was a Philips (CRT-type) that had the most remarkable picture I have ever seen on any non-HD set. I has served me well. Find a Philips is getting more difficult here in the States, as they have stopped shipping them here. Funai, a Japanese company known for their "Black Friday Specials" for stores such as Wal-Mart and the like, has taken over the brand, here. I doubt if the quality will ever be as good as it use to be, as a result.
I got a 47" 6000 series for nearly half the price of retail at Sams Club. It even included free delivery!
The cable company has set everything up, including swapping out my DVR for an HD version and tonight, I will be wrapping myself in the warm, feel good embrace of Hi-Def.
Now, on to the next gadget...a Blu Ray player. Oh, angst! How you taunt me!
