Anyone look at the flyer and see any great deals jump out at you? Lot's of the big Plasmas and stuff seem quite discounted but those are way out of my range. Maybe next year?
I'm not sure how this Friday thing works, if they offer all of the hourly specials today or what?

Don't buy Plasma, even if you can afford it. The feedback on these tv's isn't great. Picture starts to fade after 3 years. LCD is the way to go. Plasma tv's also suffer from burn-in (a station identifying logo "watermark" can cause burn-in of static images i.e. Global, CNN, ESPN, MSNBC, etc).

Bah, I wanted CRT, Rear projection big screens or whatever those are. Certainly not in the mood for dropping 3 - 10K regardless what it "was priced at" lol..
Anyone who scan the flyer know about any of the big screens they're selling, I'm a TV newb and just want something big to watch DVD's and XBox

Then get a Front Projector, Wookie.
The technology has progressed to remarkable picture quality. Downside is replacing a bulb after 3000 or so hrs but worth it IMO for a +100" screen size entertainment unit.
Decent projectors run from 1500 and up. They carry LCD and DLP chips.
You also don't have to worry about image-burn-in with Rear Projection tv's when playing games and you can port pure digital signals right in with crisp clear gaming picture pleasure. [/b][/quote]
I looked at those at the sale, they were pretty sweet. I think I'd seriously consider getting one and scrapping the TV idea. At the Soundsaround slae they wereplay a DVD on it and it looked pretty sweet.
Any idea what a cable signal would look like? What are they like if the lights are on in the room?
Also I'd be a little concerned with the mess of wires going up to the projector.. well you'd need an output from the amp.. Ummm, the cable, well with digital cable the signal can come from the amp too..
Well thanks for the response skycemen, it's certainly something i'll be looking at inthe future.
I left after deciding to not buy anything, At one point I was deciding (close to buying) a sony car CD player, and 6 disc changer. Dvd player..
