"The big dark secret of HDTV manufacturers: for a given size of TV, 1080p (and really any resolution) has a specific range of viewing distance in which the true resolution is visible. For some of the smaller TVs, you have to be within 3 feet of the TV to really experience the HD."

 

Thats what almost everybody says, but I can tell if a TV is 1080p or 720p from across the best buy floor (at least 50 feet)

 

Call BS all you want, but some people can tell.

EDIT:  Oh yeah.  Thats a good price, but the brand and stats are no good.  The things to look for in an HDTV is Resolution (higher the better), Contrast ratio (1000:1 or better, but the bigger the first number the better), Response time (smaller the better, measured in miliseconds), and color depth (more colors, the better).

Witty signature here...

Wii: 14 million by January  I sold myself short

360: 13 million by January I sold microsoft short, but not as bad as Nintendo.

PS3: 6 million by January. If it approaches 8 mil i'll eat crow  Mnn Crow is yummy.

With these results, I've determined that I suck at long term predictions, and will not long term predict anything ever again. Thus spaketh Crono.
