I was at my local BB yesterday and I did notice many Sony LCD tv's on sale. One that caught my eye right away was a 46'' 240 HZ 1080P lcd for $1599. Yeah....I would buy that.

Why? You could get a 50" Panny PDP for less with a much superior picture and a good jump in screen size.

LCD peeps will always buhlieve (I was one, once)...until you've pried yourself from that technology, you won't be able to experience the Plasma benefits firsthand.

I'm really curious what the retail PS3 price drops are going to do for the second hand market. It seems like prices there have creeped down slowly with retail pricing, usually around $50 less.... I'm looking to get a PS3 with full BC one of these days.

Benefits? I guess it acts as a heater for your house...or if you like paying boatloads for energy every month.
