I am now ready to buy my HDTV. I have been looking at the big Samsungs. Remember this is the first tv for a non tv home. We will mostly be watching CDs and downloads, not much broadcast...except for the Superbowl for my son (if I can figure out how to stream it on the net).
The big Samsungs often have 3D. Will the 3D affect the regular view? I am looking for a clear viewing set that will manage action
I keep reading that TV is changing and I wonder whether these TVs are old technology?
Can I actualy put an aerial on it?
Can these tvs live in a room that in the winter sometimes go down to 60's or even 50's? I would heat the room before I use it.
I have a BJs card and they sell them there. CNET also has them by price at their site.
One last question: is it better with respect to price, to buy now during the Christmas season or wait for the football season.
HDTV PING LIST PLEASE
Was looking at tv’s briefly today. I start my research in earnest tomorrow and found a new tv I had not seen at Best buy called a Sharp Aquos 70. Out of my price range by about a thousand. But the color was nice. Said they add yellow to the usual triad blue green red.
Spellbinding picture. Nice size.
Keep us posted with your adventures!

I will. The devil seems to be in the details.
