Yeah, standing in the store yesterday watching this TV was amazing. There's another one I was looking at that was $2k less, but the standard cable channels came in like crap. So between now and when I buy it I have to decide if it's worth the extra $2k. Either way, 60" screens are awesome. 
Just keep in mind that I think in 2009, all broadcasts will be required to be in HD.

In 3 years, you wont have to worry about crappy standard cable channels.

I just had a buddy telling me that he heard the government will be mandating that every channel be broadcasted in digital by the end of 2006, which would take care of some of my problem. If that's true, I'll probably end up going with the $3k TV.
EDIT: Seems 2009 is the date for digital conversion of all channels, not HD. Hmmm.

I dunno what I would want... when my car gets here, I pretty much have everything I need. Only thing I can think of is enough $ to build a carputer at once, or maybe a new car

A great idea, but I am going to have to go with Angelina Jolie instead of Elizabeth hurley... That or Laura Prepon... Or Natalie Portman, those are my top 3.

Love it, hides away nicely & takes up zero space. Key consideration when you have a relatively small or poorly laid out house.
Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.
