Supports 1080i? If you bought a 32" XBR for $1400, you got a sweet deal, cause the MSRP for that model is $2199.99 US.;)

this dude reminds me what n-player2 was like, constantly changing his loyalty. And I have seen GT3 run on a 32" Wega and I must say that I haven\'t seen anything better since then

That pic is actually a cool pic to have.

What\'s so insulting about it?

July 2002: If you had bought $1000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00. Enron, $16.50 left. Worldcom, $5.00 left. If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser beer one year ago, drank it all and turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.00. Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.

OK, if this is the model #KV-32HS20 then I stand corrected.  The prices have come down even farther than I thought.  But I do have issue with one thing.

Why would anyone by a 4:3 HDTV??  All HD material is 16:9.  So you will not be viewing anything in the top and bottom.  Say hello to burn in!!!  Either that or you are going to zoom in on the image which is absolutely ubsurd since the stuff is framed for 16:9.

Here is the real HD unit.  WIthout that stupid vertical compression crap to get 16:9

http://www.sel.sony.com/SEL/consumer/ss5/home/hdtv/hdtv/kd-34xbr2.shtml

It\'s still a nice tv, don\'t get me wrong.  Just not a wise investment if you ask me, but you didn\'t so enjoy.

That\'s fine.  I will enjoy watching 16:9 HD while you and your other Wega buddies will live in the 4:3 SD world.  

If it weren\'t for the change over to HD happening so quickly I would agree with you all about the 4:3 Wega, but it\'s happening.

BTW, College football in HD looks awesome.  Along with the full CBS line-up, the full ABC Line-up, movie of the week, Showtime, HBO, HDNet..

All of which you will not get to see for many years since you have invested in a TV that you will not want to part with for many years do to your investment.

But it is a nice TV.

Videoholic you come off as an arrogant ass, and your point isn\'t even valid.  You are comparing a 4k tv with a 2k set.  Why don\'t we compare the snes to the PS2 while we are at it.

You don\'t read my posts at all do you?

I am comparing the investment in a 1400 dollar tv that in 3 years will be obsolete.  

I am saying that the cost of tvs are coming down so fast that it is ridiculous to invest in an expensive tv that is not 16:9 HD.

Don\'t knit pick my posts.  

But the 4:3 Wega is a nice tv.

All things go obsolete, you can\'t make purchases like that.  I don\'t want to spend 4k on a TV. I don\'t care about the minor differences (and they are minor).  Hell I have a mid 90s panasonic right now and I\'m doing just fine.  

Your 4k tv will be half that in two year\'s time (or less) and then someone will have the newest model that will make your TV look old and crappy.  You put a 4k wega in your livingroom and sit across the room on the couch and you tell me how much of a difference you see.

Minor differences?!

Just curious, but have you witnessed the difference between a 480i and 1080i(HD)signal displayed on an HDTV? The difference is astonishing.

Yeah, a really sweet deal! What does your home theatre/game set-up consist of? Other than your XBR, PS2, XbX, etc..., Just curious?
