It's still a big chunk of cash towards such, isn't it?

That's what the ordinary telly is for, day to day viewing. Down come
the blinds for proper movie viewing.

~4 times the price for a ~33% increase in picture size doesn't work
for me I'm afraid. They're still too expensive and too small.

I like the idea of the much larger screen size via FP. It seems like
you're getting more for a very large stack of cash.

But hey, maybe the price will continue creeping down to the point
where it becomes more interesting as a little upgrade from a 32"
CRT telly!
