I checked StaticIce but nothing decent there. It's a great price compared to what I paid for my tiny 32" a few years back, but the short warranty worries me (been burnt before on a Sansui with 1 year warranty). Anyway, I'll let you guys tell us if this really is a good deal or not :-)
Very good price for a great TV. 2011 models are coming, but I'm betting this will still compare well to them.
Cannot comment on the store as I've had no dealings with them.
