Does anyone have this model?
Best Buy Page (http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8249683&type=product&productCategoryId=pcmcat95100050006&id=1169512288825)
I was looking at getting this, since Best buy has all their tvs on sale. It is the same price that i was looking to pay for a 32 inch about a month or so ago. 1,300.00. I want to use it for my Xbox 360, and my Wii. Im just wondering if anyone has it, and their review of it. I also would like to know if i can change the screen to 4:3 mode for the VC games on wii. Plus is it worth paying 180.00 dollars for the 4 year warranty? I dont really want to spend more money then i have to. It already comes with a 1 year deal. I have a LCD samsung monitor for my pc and have had it for some time now, and never had any problems with it. Any advice would be great.

Check Cnet. I logged into Consumer reports for you but that model was not on there. I do know that most the samsungs have had great reviews for LCD.

I myself am thinking Samsung or Panasonic from what I have seen.

Great price, that was the original price of the 32" model I bought a month ago (which has since dropped to $1100, luckily that's the price I paid via pricematch). I'm not enough of a videophile to really be making recommendations on such things, but I haven't had any problems with my 3253H, SD content looks alright, haven't watched a lot of HD content on it yet (just the Wii and an upscaling DVD player).

I picked up the extended warranty just for piece of mind. $160 on a $1100 purchase wasn't too troublesome.

I actually went with the Samsung LNT4061F 40" 1080p LCD HDTV (http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-LNT4061F-1080p-LCD-HDTV/dp/B000N4Z42C/ref=sr_1_10/103-7812902-7323059?ie=UTF8&s=audio-video&qid=1183600479&sr=1-10)
Only 1,420.00 for a 1080P 40 inch, 10,000:1 contrast, 8ms tv.
At best buy or Circuit City they wanted something like 1,700 for this model.
Plus i got free shipping, so all is good. I think i got a good tv at a great price.
