seems like once you wait two years to get a new TV set, you'll want a new DVD player by then anyways. I'd just be tempted to get a Panasonic DVD-RV32K in your case. you can find them in yahoo shopping for like $100+shipping. Also I believe Circuit City has them for $120+tax, or something like that now. (normal price is $150). You could probably spend a little more to get a progressive scan model, but that feature won't be of use until you get a different TV. I don't see how that is worth an extra $100 right now (or whatever the difference is). I personally wouldn't have enough confidence that the unit would physically last that long (most low price mass market stuff tend last last that long, especially if moving parts are involved).I have a Toshiba 36AF61 (SDTV only, but I like it). The panasonic player I mentioned is on my shortlist.
My $0.02

Be careful.My friend bought the Panny RV32 and he's experiencing a lot of problems with it. It freezes up quite a bit and it's driving him crazy. He took the first one back and the store replaced it with another one. Guess what? Same problems.Just a little FYI.

although our current VCR is over 15 years old (not even stereo). We don't use it very often. We rent about 20 movies per year, so the player will likely last a while. However, you're probably right that we shouldn't get progressive scan until we can actually use it. When we get a new TV, we would probably move the current one to the basement, and a cheap DVD player could go with it. We can get a new one with the TV.Thanks,
Ted
