Looking to furnish our new house with a couple of TVs. Main viewing content is kids shows for our toddler, reality shows for wife, and ocassional movies for me when I have the free time. Since we just moved in I don't have the time to spend hours trolling for Black Friday deals or camping outside Best Buy for 2 days to save $100. I'm hoping for a reasonably priced TV that represents good bang for the buck, will give me the least amount of headaches, with features like being able to wirelessly stream shows from my laptop being a bonus.
In my (admittedly brief) amount of research, I've come across a couple of likely candidates; Costco has a Philips 50" 1080p LCD with wireless streaming for ~$560.
Other option I see is are the Samsung E450 series 720P plasma sets, I should be able to get the 51" for under $500 or the 43" for under $400.
Each seem to get reasonably good reviews. I know that similar comparisons have probably been hashed out here ad naseum, but can someone compare the technologies and features for me? I just want get something and move on to unpacking my house so I can stop trying to use a pile of boxes as a diaper changing table. Thanks!
