This t.v. is pretty dan good. I have the higher model of it (the 60 ich one) it uses the same projector. I expect the quality to be better because the screen is smaller.

New model out next month

With alot more features

This model is getting blown out because it does not compare to the new 42 inch.

Save your money for that one next month.

They're out in the states already. Here's a place to start:

They look a lot nicer too. Darker shade, and the speakers on the side are gone (they were just a big waste of space IMHO).

It has been the same as the BB price for the last week or two at the FS in Saskatoon. It is not marked as a special or sale price- the price tag states "guaranteed lowest" price.

The current models are quite cheap now. Are the changes to the new models worth the extra few hundred when it comes out?

guess you should wait a month for the new ones. They look nice and you could connect your PC to it easily. It's going to be around $2500 for 42 inch.

Never mind...found it. Here it is for anyone else looking:

The mention of "flat-panel" in the description threw me off...which is why I thought this was a really hot deal. But it's rear LCD, not flat-panel.

daftfunk the Futureshop in oshawa has this tv for 1998 or something. I was there today looking around and I always check out the price as I have been updating that other thread which if you do a quick check on... You will see a 1998 price :)
