my vizio had problems from day 1 (Feb 2007) & costco agreed to refund/exchange - so I'm getting 1199 + tax back & need a new TV.
I lean heavily towards LCD primarily b/c of the glare issues with plasmas.. I Live in South Texas so there's lots of sun in the summer. and spring. and fall. and winter.
The width of my armoire is right at 51.25" - so I'm limited by that and by the refund amount.
So, I'm looking at:
Toshiba 46" LCD 1080p 120MHz for 1199 in store - 120 Mhz
Westinghouse 52" LCD 1080p for 1199 after 300 off - this model is 50.6" wide so I'm cutting REALLY close in the armoire - it would leave me about .25" on either side of the TV!
Vizio 50" Plasma 1080p for 1199
Costco also has a Sharp Aquos 46" LCD (not 120MHz) for 1199 - but I can't find a link anywhere to it... the model# is LCC4655U
Any suggestions?
EDIT: I mostly use this for HD (no blu-ray yet) cable + upconverted content from my modded xbox & DVD player.
