good LCD TV in the 60"-70" range?

[Howard]

Not sure what the budget is, quite yet, but I'm looking for something decent for the living room. Of course 1080p and I would prefer something with good black levels and resistance to glare.

Some Wal-Marts still have a few of the 60" Vizio e601i-a3 for $688. Normally $988 I believe.

They are red ribboned boxes.

Also LG 60" 60PN5000 Plasma's for $650. Specific BF model.

Not looking at plasmas, unfortunately. I have one already and while it may be good for the basement, I do not need to deal with the reflectiveness in my well-lit ground-floor living room.

The Sharp LC-70LE757 looks really nice right now, but I'd rather not pay over $2500. Anything similar to it for a bit less?

Do you have a Costco near you? Theyve got a 70" Aquos for $1499

Costco Canada, unfortunately.

I'd say +1 for Costco easily.

Is Costco in Canada not as good?

No, the prices are usually 20-30% higher than in the US.

no technology is going to look decent in a poor environment. I'd still choose plasma at least in the evening it will look good vs looking half @ssed in the day, and half @ssed at night like an LCD
