Any way to make this deal sweeter? Or is it a good buy as is?

I'm looking for a 37" as my main TV.

he's looking here

basically it will accept 1080P input, but obviously it cannot natively display 1080P...
I can only assume it downscales...

This is good for regular HD stuff, but if you want one this size to use as a monitor or with a PS3 consider the West 37" 1080p which is often down to $950 no ship.

 

[Rage187]

wait for the westy to get back down below $999

some people think that because it says "Support" that it will display at that resolution.

Just like some people think HDTV Ready means you can see HD right out of the box.

 

[Doh!]

$100 cheaper at Microcenter.com for $799. I've talked to a rep at the Chicago store, and they'll have it on Thursday.
