I feel like I made this topic a few months ago but didn't get any good responses.

I don't want to spend more than $300.

- Should I wait for Black Friday?
- Brands to stay away from?
- 720p vs 1080i?
- LCD, Plasma, others?

Black Friday's only a month away, so the wait shouldn't be that hard. That's... about all the advice I have. I have a 720p Vizio from 2006. Seems like it would be dated nowadays, but it still displays games beautifully and I love it.

Man, HDTVs are so cheap nowadays.

That said, I'm waiting for Black Friday myself. I'm gonna be picking up a laptop and an HDTV.

Are the prices really that great for Black Friday? Like can I get these for $100? I have no problem waiting the night before if that's true.

How cheap is cheap? I want to get myself a big quality one (good brand name and 50"+), but not until sometime down the line.

u can buy a tv thats specifically a 1080i these days?

Anyway, for 300 dollars, there is no need for 1080 anything. The size of the TV that $300 can get you is not gonna be big enough to need something larger than 720p.

Whoa. I'm not sure how cheap they've gotten nowadays, but I'd imagine a mob would form for a $100 quality HDTV.

Always wait for black friday, and 1080p is a must. I got a 42" 1080p last year and it is amazing.

Good stuff can often be found online, but the BEST TV/computer deals will force you to trample and get trampled. Best of luck.
