Circuit City (never thought I'd buy anything from them) is advertising a 46" Sony WEGA LCD Projection HDTV (KDF46E2000) for $999 which is right at the top of my budget. It was priced at $1500. The only negative I see is that it's 'only' 720p and not 1080i or 1080p.

I don't really
need to go this big, we'll be sitting 9ft away and I'm stepping up from an off brand 24in cheapo DVD/VCR combo TV. I couldn’t believe how small the 24in TV’s in the store looked after looking at 40-50 inch sets!
Can anyone suggest anything better in the $600 - $1000 price range? I’m thinking 1080p resolution but a smaller size? Does anyone have anything bad to say about this set?
