I love my LCD TV and all, but if I start looking into one that is that big......I am going for a projector, especially at $4,200!

It is actually a DLP TV not LCD. But for the money nothing can beat front projection. If you have room for an 82" tv you will most likely have the room for a front projection setup. IMO..

New technology always seems to have too many bugs for me to deal with. I'll take something that is a proven commodity first.

I agree in many respects, but I was more wondering if there was a front projection option?

To my knowledge, no. But if there was, I would still be very cautious and would want to hear a lot of positive feedback before I would think about it. I wonder what the price point for something like that would start at?

I know there is one (though it may only have been 720p and I remember thinking it was expensive). I'm sure in the next two to three years it'll be a standard feature (especially if avatar becomes the hit people seem to be expecting). (I personally can't wait for the new 3d format to reach blu and projectors).

I am hearing a lot of buzz about 3D lately. My concern is just how much 3D blu's will they make, as it must take a whole lot more space to put one of these on a blu.

LOL! I'd call that good marketing perhaps? As they know who looks and buys TV's!

This TV would eat my wall its so big lol. The price seems good for what you get but as stated earlier I know you probably don't want to go projectioin but if I were spending that money I would go projection route. The 3D ready thing seems interesting lets hope the 3D tech actually come out sometime soon.

I would have to see it in action to see if there is a large diff between old 3D tech and new 3D. Has anyone seen the Journey to the Center of the Earth BD. I hear the 3D is not bad. I am told the brightness has to be really amped up for it to pop. This is from a guy that used an Epson 1080UB front projector for the viewing.

Mits 3D tech is not new. This has been standard on their TV's for years now.

The term "new" can be, and is in my example, relative.

Thats what I was thinking for the price, even without the 3d option this seemed to be one hell of a price.
