Well, here's my wild goose update: Did some legwork and scouted out the various outlets I was planning on hitting, to see how many units, what time they open, what the procedure would be, etc. The Walmart is a disaster. It was hard to find an employee who spoke english, and when I did I was told no...

How is the geometry on your TV? Look at some channels that have a news/sports ticker on the bottom and on the top. Does the lines curve up or down at the edges? You will also notice it in sports games on the consoles.

Re: $60 titles for next-gen

For myself, at launch, I'll probably grab only two titles at $120 when I might likely grab three if it were only $150. That kind of money will get you a Gamefly/BlockBuster pass for 6 months. I'm sure you can do with 2 games out at a time with gamefly, return them when your done, get another one. Y...

If I may correct you, CRT RPTV's do not have any issues with Black levels. LCD RPTV do and some of the other new techno stuff, but not CRT RPTV.

A RPTV would be too big for him, the one that I mentioned is a tube TV. Why would anyone get rid of a set that is still the best out on the market today? Unless you run out of space? Here is the one Best Buy has @ under $800.... http://www.sonystyle.com/is-bin/INTERSHOP.enfinity/eCS/Store/-/-/-/SY_D...

CRT still has best picture for the money. You should be able to find 30-inch widescreens for $1000 or less. That should be close in size to the 32-inch LCD (not sure if that's a 4:3 or 16:9). If space ISN'T an issue, then you might as well just get a 47 or a 48 inch rear projection CRT HDTV like I ...

I posted this at another forum regarding HDTV, but I figured I'd copy it here since it's a good solution for a gamer looking for a new setup on a budget...$999 for a 32" LCD HDTV is not bad, and the performance is more than adequate for all but the most discerning AV geeks. ------------------------...

I have an HDTV, but I don't see the 360 at $400 to be a bargain. If I was single still, I'd get one on launch just like the DC, PS2, and XBOX. If I didn't have a child on the way, I'd probably be lining up in three weeks too. By the way, is there a complete list of backward compatible games out the...

If you're doing video conversions, I'd check out Videora iPod Converter. It's worked good for me so far, and took about 35-40 minutes to transcode one episode of Lost that I had on the ol' hard drive. Quality and sound seem quite good. And it's very very very easy to use. http://www.videora.com/en-...
