The LG LCD is actually pretty nice for its price. I have the Toshiba 47" 1080p Regza. It's pretty similar to the LG in terms of inputs, but the resoulution is a little crisper. I'm still trying to play with the settings a little to get the best picture, but its serving me very well. I'd recommend it. I got mine from Overstock.com

I bought a 42' Olevia 1080p LCD at Walmart for $850 (242T FHD). $150 less than the New Egg price ($999). Has good quality and specs and great reviews for a TV in that range. Not the nicest TV of course, but cant be beat for the price. Only gripe I've heard is that it doesn't have quite as good black level as say a Sony, costing almost $500 more, but I haven't noticed. Can't wait to hit up GTA4 tomorrow on it at full 1080p through HDMI.

I have a 42" HP plasma 720p that I got from BB for wicked cheap, under a grand with a 4 year warranty, I love the picture of it. I can definately say I like the picture of a plasma screen over an LCD.

I used to work with a guy who came from BB and he said when they got returns when people had warranties they would either give you the next closest TV or let you use the money towards whatever you'd want, that money being the price of the TV initially plus interest.

Watch a lot of sports or action movies? If so, a 120Hz LCD would be a better choice: Samsung 6 Series, XBR4, Sharp 82 series or Mitsubishi LT series.
I work with HDTVs all day. I dont like the LG30 series but the LG50s are pretty nice. But the best TV for price/performance has got to be the new toshiba Regzas. Last year they were shit, this year I'd wager them against most "high end" models...

Negative Ghost Rider. The only continuing samsung model that has the 120hz but doesnt have their glossy clear panel is the 69 series...
I see.
What series of Toshiba Regzas? I know Sammy has different "series"...curious what series you were mentioning.
