I was at costco today and I was lookin at their plasma and LCD's and I came across this one.

LINK TO WEBSITE

Costco's tv section is limited but I noticed the excellent picture quality this 37" LCD had and it seems like a good deal for $1,799.99. I currently have a 42" panasonic EDTV from costco and I'm returning it soon because of some issues with the hook ups in the back. Costo has a 1 year 100% satisfaction gaurantee so i'll be receiving the $1,699.99 + tax I paid for it. I wouldn't mind upgrading the picture quality from an EDTV 480p/i to a HDTV 1080i and dropping the size from a 42" to a 37". What do you guys think about this Philips?

I'm not too sure on the Philips series, as a close friend of ours had their plasma go bad in a year or so. I would look into Panasonic or Samsung if I were you.
