42" HDTV for under a grand...

w00t!  Not that I need one, but its good to see these getting reasonably priced.  Any of you still looking to make the switch to HDTV, this might be a great option!

Yeah, I\'m with mm on this one. If you\'re getting a HDTV these days, get 1080P.

720p for under 1g is a steal, take it.

You may have to wait in line at 3am because you can bet other Costco Black Friday shoppers want the exact same thing.

Shitty thing about Canada is that your prices for electronics never properly reflects the us retail price. I noticed Canadians get raped when it comes to retail goods. I understand our supply and demand is greater here in the US, but unfortunately your distributors need to lower the prices to reflect the new currency rate.

Some do, most don\'t.  They know that "free trade" is a joke, and if we order from the US we pay duties.  

Bastards.

Can\'t you have friends just buy it for you and bring it to you to avoid the extra cost? I do that for my aunt in Barrie, Ontario.

Yeah, but then you would be hitting smuggling/fraud areas of the criminal code, and while the chances are infinitesimally small that you get caught, the penalties are much more draconian.
