This is a new model of Micro Center's TV - it has DVI in, unlike its predecessor.

EDIT: There's a $100 MIR involved in getting the set for 799.99, figured THAT was worth mentioning. DEAL IS NOT AVAILABLE ONLINE.

Good deal. A friend of mine picked up one of these when they were 999 and he's been happy with it. I might have to check into this one.

anyone know who really makes it? i'd like to read some reviews.

Thanx for the Coupon

Thanks... this is the same deal that was previously only in Chicago, etc.

How am I going to resist?

I hope this deal doesn't come to Cali cuz I'll have to buy one.

here's a forum link with specs:

i take that back, i don't think it's the same

This isn't the Olevia. The contrast rate is lower, and the TV isn't a TRUE 16:9 (ad says 15:9) - but the specs sound workable.

And before you think it - it's not the same panel as Dell uses (since they're both listed as 25ms), since MC lists a 600:1 contrast ratio, while Dell reports 350:1 on the W3000.

Also, food for thought, if an "off-brand" 30" LCD HDTV-capable set is 799.99AR/AC *NOW* - what's the next Black Friday going to look like?

45" 16ms LCDs with true 1080p capability for 999?












...HEY, I CAN DREAM. Until then, I could always hit up the mob.
