Is LCD a flat panel? Or is that something else altogether.

I know the prices will go down. But it'll just take a lot of justification on my part to warrant upgrading. I'm not a big A/V freak. I just like to be able to watch my movies and that's that. But if that's a flat panel for that price, yeah, I'd be all over it simply because of the savings of space. I hate how big (front to back) and heavy my 27" flat screen is, but the picture is spectacular. I love no longer worrying about curved screens and only being able to see it at certain angles. With this one I could be sitting at 5 degrees off the plane that is parallel to the screen and still see the whole picture. I love it.

I know it will take some time to drop down in price and really catch on. That's what I do. I'm a wait and see kind of guy. I'll sit out the format wars to see what happens. Wait for prices to drop a bit before investing. I just don't think HD will have the high rate of acceptance of SD-DVD and I don't know if the equipment prices will drop quite so dramatically so quickly.
