"Keep an eye out for
a new technology that looks like plasma but is made up of thousands of tiny CRT cells"What new technology should I keep an eye out for? Is there something new in the research department thats ready to come out?
Hello Late,Your right in not taking any compromises if you want the best picture. Another factor in this equation is that big screen prices keep coming down and down---sort of like what computers did a few years ago.
With Outboard tuners or any thing outboard for that matter they never quite integrate as well as a built in tuner.
Anothe thing is that waiting for all these technologies to come together (Blu-ray, HD-DVD,etc) is that the whole system will integrate at its best when the manufacturers have all these tools to work with.

Hi,
subscribe to a home theater mag or two. It will go over all that stuff.
My 2 cents....
1) when you do pick, just pick a screen you like that is 40-50 inches.
2) if you want to go crazy, do it buying the sub.
3) many rooms are just too small for surround sound
4) Don't worry about specs. Learn what the obvious mistales are and buy s theater that is nice, but doesn't break the bank.
5) Acoustic treaments... are great.
