i find this is the best site to buy projection tvs from. there are tons of stores there. just check the customer reviews of the store and product. i agree with the last post about the ew. on projection tvs its money well spent. especially dlps. 1 bulb replacement could cost up to $400. you figure most ew cover 3-4 years. in 3-4 years you may go through 2-3 bulbs. then if something else happens to go wrong it covered. would you warranty a 2k car if you knew you were gonna be useing it for 6-8 hours a day. if you have kids that figure could go way up. that means the bulb is more likely to blow sooner. i would highly recomend toshiba dlps they have one within your price range and is 46 inches. they also have one that is slightly more. its 1080p, built in tuner, tv guide built in, and other features. check the links below.
