Of course this is always the catch 22 of any electronics purchase... whatever cell phone, flat screen, computer, laptop, tablet, etc. you but in a few months there will be a bigger better one at a lower price available.

I am notorious for scanning the Internet for the best performance and price on any purchase (big fan of CNET) but to keep my sanity I don't play the "but in a few months" game. I set a budget and time frame and buy within that... I kid you not, the coil-overs I just bought... in a few months a manufacture is supposed to come out hot new product at a great price, but the shocks on my 1995 Miata look to be OEM and need to be changed yesterday... same with the 36" CRT, it blinks on and off randomly... some nights not big deal... some night a huge PITA.

And then there is my wife... she has given the green light to spend the tax return on these items... she is not a huge fan of TV and has even less interest in my automobile hobby. If I don't move on these now the funds may get reallocated.
