I have this model and love it! Not the 60" But the 40" for my bedroom. I paid with tax and all 800 or less in dec at frys.
I would buy a HDTV from Amazon. The price of a 60" Samsung HDTV was 1k less than Best Buy.
This would probably be the tv for you
Amazon.com: Samsung UN46D6300 46-Inch 1080p 120Hz LED HDTV (Black): Electronics

Right on, good to know. Yeah I agree the 55" Sony is a bit overpriced, however, it was right next to another 55" Samsung and they both looked good. Also, how is the video fed to all the TV's? Don't some sets get a distorted video because so many sets need to be fed? Or do they all get individual feeds?
Also, do you know how long the Sony KDL46EX621 will be on sale for (46 LED LCD)? Its got a $150 rebate bringing it to $899 at the Concord store. I plan on getting the adapter and streaming from my router (comcast broadband) and using a PS3 for blue-ray/games. Not doing cable TV or anything else.

be careful with this one...ive heard about some stores playing around with the settings and setting the ones that havent been selling to look better then other TVs...if anything, have a sales rep adjust the settings of two comparable TVs and judge it from there

You missed out then, because the 70" Sharps were $1999 during Xmas
I just got my 55" Samsung LED 240Hz 3D for $1760 from Amazon not too long ago, looks like it is currently not too much more than that right now. Other than it being edge lit, it looks amazing.
Frys had the 55 D6500 on sale for $1300 a few weeks back and I would have gone with one of those, but they sold out.
