Hi guys.. this is my 1st post in here.. I just need a quick advice..

I want to buy a 42 to 46 inches TV.. I'm hesitating between these 3 models:

1- Panasonic PT43LC14
2- Sony Grand WEGA KF42WE620
3- Toshiba 44NHM84

I don't want to start a big thread.. just tell me your quick opinion..

oh yeah. I own a Xbox and plan to use it on the new TV.

Thanks! ;)

Samsung HLP4674 would be the best choice.
Toshi would be second.
Sony third.
And I wouldn't have a Pani if you gave it to me!

"And I wouldn't have a Pani if you gave it to me!"

why?
I work at FutureShop and I have only a few selections.. I get good prices for big screens..

The Toshiba u mentionned is not carried by FutureShop.. :-(

Futureshop carries the Toshiba 44NHM84 but not the HLP4674.

From the list (all are in the same price range), the Toshiba is probably the best choice.

Pani is on your list!

If you don't have a Toshi to choose, why is it listed too?

I guess you're stuck with a Sony! Too bad!
I thought you had some choices. Guess not!

Get real already!

The Panasonic I mentionned does 1080p while the Toshiba 44NHM84 does 720p..

Isn't that better?

I guess the toshiba one also has a HDMI connector?

Not at all!

Haven't you read the threads about the real short lamp life of Pani's and the $400 cost sometimes twice a year? These poor people want a class action for relief. That's why I wouldn't take one if you gave it to me. You would be offering a hole to throw my money in. No thanks!

HDMI/DVI is not really better in some displays. Most of us use component cables including most storefronts. You must try both to see which is better.

Damn.. some liar told me yesterday that the lamp lasted at least 5000 hours. Stupid salesman.

They told these poor folks it would last 10K hours.
