here's some more background on the deal. for starters, UPS/Fed X LAUGHED at coming to our place in rural Arkansas. we're 3 miles from the closest mailbox on the high way!!

we don't care about uber sound systems, home theaters and the likes. DW works at the local walmart, 12 miles away, so she gets 10% off. she talked to a couple of the guys at work in the electronics dept. and they both recommended Samsung or Vizio over the Sony. I was really surprised!
I haven't had a chance to personally talk to them but I'll try to Saturday if I can get out. (the humidity lately royally SCREWS with my breathing.)

I have no problems with the $1300.00 price tag for the Sony. I read lots of REALLY BAD reps about the power supplies on the Samsungs crapping out.
I watch a LOT of TV since I can't get out when it's real hot or cold. I want something that will be trouble free and last.

Any more input?
TIA!!!

ETA: not ready to make the 3D jump yet.
