woot.com check it out if you want a massive freaking tv. they still have the regular $5 shipping for this beast too.
Just a warning, their company is really having a difficult time. Ticker BRLC if you want to check it out. Might make warranty hard to claim if something happens.
I can't find what the contrast ratio is on this beast. It is really difficult to not jump on that deal regardless.
I got this off another message board.... Syntax-Brillian has filed for bankruptcy. The Tempe, Ariz.-based Olevia television and Vivitar digital camera maker, filed for protection from creditors in a Delaware court following a year of missed sales targets, leadership changes, and accounting problems, according to Reuters. The company's stock has dropped more than 90 percent in the last year, and its efforts to refinance and raise additional financing were unsuccessful. With just eight employees left at headquarters, it has ceased operations. A new company, called Olevia International Group, has been created and will take on $60 million of Syntax-Brillian's debt, and the Vivitar digital camera unit will be put up for sale. The company had total debts of $259.4 million and assets amounting to $175.7 million.

I didn't do it. It's just not necessary right now. We are trying to change our spending habits so we can buy a summer home in Sweden. Stupid spending like this is what will kill that.
