I need to be able to watch the nightly news and Flames games. Budget is approximately $550-600. I'll pay more to get something that will last a bit though. Apparently $250 doesn't cut it for a utility television any more.

It's much more expensive than other options at $700, but will do what you want, but is also intended for an application that's unique to most other TV applications as well. It's got an art aesthetic/slim fit profile that no other TVs can match. It's also a good TV to either run art mode, or some people load up a bunch of the pictures and just have it display their high res pics like a large expensive print that would cost hundreds of dollars to print, or somewhat hide the fact it's a TV when not being used as a TV. IMO in a bedroom, that few inches in the profile also makes the bedroom seem a little bigger and tidier.
The only way to justify this TV is to consider the application more than a TV and that it's doing some non-TV stuff that other TVs cannot do.

I'm not sure The Frame is a great choice for me as I won't be wall mounting it and wouldn't be interested in using it to display art prints. Just not my bag.
