Any thoughts on this TV? (Toshiba 32HF73)
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage....2&type=product
Looks like it has everything I need for a good price. I'd like it to have "V-Compression"(?), the function that maximizes the resolution of anamorphic DVD's on 4:3 TV's, but I'm not sure if it does.
Basically, I'm looking for comments on this set, and suggestions on other TV's that are similar to this one that you may think are better. Thanks!

if you have a compusa around you they should have the Panasonic TAU 32" HDTV 4:3 for $699.
i almost jumped on it, but decided against it.
spend $60 on their 4 year in home warranty/replacement

I'm currently in the hunt for a 42" ED plasma.

To be able to pick up this TV for under $3000 makes it too much to pass up.

The 6UY is exactly the model that every review online points to.
you can pick it up with stand or mount for under $2500 (+ shipping) here:

or the 25U/P for $2600 + shipping (includes stand) here:

I'm still on the fence

After reading some more reviews, i'm pretty sure I'll be pulling the trigger on the TH-42PD25U/P.
Built in Speaker, Stand, NTSC, ATSC/QAM tuners, cable card.
HDMI, VGA... i mean, it has everything out of the box.
with the 6UY, you'd have to buy speakers and stand separate.
not to mention the added bonus of built in HD and ntsc.
