Another close call!

While browsing at a local store, I came across a 42-inch Panasonic plasma HDTV for only $2500. The salesman showed off some very cool features and assured me this was a new model, the latest technology. The sign said HDTV, and the price looked incredible. Fortunately, I looked a bit closer. Turns out it said HDTV "compatible." Which, it turns out, means EDTV.

A nice TV set, but not what I was looking for.

Another close call!

On the plus side, the Wall Street Journal today predicted some significant price drops in HDTVs over the next several weeks. All right!!!
