In a few days the price of flat panel TVs will drop considerably. Why? Because Sony wants to regain its number one market share, so its drastically dropping the prices of its first new 2008 1080p flat panel models in order to pick up more sales volume.

Want more good news?

Perhaps I should hold off a few weeks on the REGZA and pick up a S4100

DepTii · 04-30-2008, 04:59 PM

Just when I was planning to buy too, very nice.

Hopefully, the will throw some good deals for Blu-ray players with the purchase of a flat panel HD TV.

This is great news, because I am in the market now for a secon HDTV. The article mentions the Sony KDL-46S4100, but with a contrast ratio of 2,500:1 isn't that crappy specs?

Glad to hear that prices will be going down, hopefully that trend continues.

This is great news. My dad and my sister (and my brother) are all looking into getting new TVs, and this means HDTV might get into their price range finally!
I hope so cause this will really boost BD sales!

if this is true, than I will be getting a new TV this coming holiday season.

me 2

Might be getting a 37" for my bedroom then~~ 26" is just kinda small right now.

Anyone wanna take my 26" Westinghouse 720P HDTV off me?

I'll sell it cheap and I still have 29 months of warrenty left through BB.

this is why amazon kicks ass, their post price guarentee means even if you buy a hdtv now, they'll price match it if it lowers. Same thing with CC. Right now is the best time to get a new tv
