That TV is definitely a possibility. One negative about going with Amazon as apposed to Best Buy is service. Best by offers a 4 year service plan for $199. I didn't see a service plan through amazon. I also appreciate having the opportunity for a face to face return if there is something wrong with the delivery.

lcd vs plasma

Do your research first,i looked and looked.read and read. i made my decision and after calling and going to 10,000 places to see the set up diffrence. my conclusion? Samsung 46' lcd Hd 1080 with ucs.
this tv is super clear and doesn't change much with the reflection of the sun if you have a big window in your living room.
and to spice it up get a good ss system.

one more thing i look for is warranty,don't get by mail items,stay away from it.if theres something wrong,you'll learn your lesson dealing with the back and forth and the cost piles up on the price you already paid for the tv.
i personally like Samsclub.
this samsung was 200 cheaper at samsclub than circuit city even on black friday.and i have the non conditional return for 30 days, if i don't like it or whatever reason i return it as long as i'm within the 30 days frame.
i love it.

yeah, but Best Buy (and Circuit City) may not be around for 4 more years. Just another thing to consider. Circuit City will most likely fail first if either does.

I've had very good experiences with Amazon's customer service btw. Although shipping a TV is a different deal than returning a camera.
