Yeah, when we replaced (let's call it) the wife's TV and went from 60 to 120 I noticed a big difference, now that we are in the market to replace "my" TV where I watch a lot of sports I was wondering if the same held true for 120 to 240 to justify the price increase or if it was just hyped science tech where you will never notice.

It'll be like when they make them refresh at 1,000 times per second,do you think your eyes will be able to tell that its so much better?

I have 2 55" lcds.One is a 120 and one is a 240 (bought them 2 years apart just FYI) and I honestly can't see the big deal.Maybe my eyes are old,or I'm just not watching the right stuff to make the difference clear cut.

You'd probably notice if you were watching 3D TV, which is where all of this is heading.

Well, that and holographic TV.

Maybe,but I'm thinking the human eye would never see the difference between being refreshed 120 vs 240 a second.I'm not even sure the brain could process the difference in real time,but I'm always up for seeing something I don't fully undertand.

I think it would depend on the content.

If you to watching a baseball game, probably not. But with something like Avatar (and what they have planned for the future of cinema), probably so.

But it sounds like you're set, either way.
