Looking to buy a new TV finally and I don't know jack about televisions.

Price isn't really an issue, although I'd like to keep it around $2000 or so since I don't watch a whole lot of TV nor play video games. It needs to be HD since I don't feel like paying extra after 2/11/09. Plus I think you have to have HD to play a PS3, and I wanna get one so I can play that game that looks like Tomb Raider

I'm basically looking for the best combination of size and picture quality for $2000 or so. Any recommendations would be appreciated

No prob bob I'm an insane (to the point of obsession) home theater & consumer electronics junkie so any questions on TVs, recievers, dvd, high def, speakers, surround sound, anything, post em up. I've recently gotten into the DIY speakers world and it's pretty neat. building speakers for $400 that blow away $4,000 speakers is pretty enticing smile.gif. I'll post up some of my projects when I get them finished.
