what do you all think about the new sony sxrds?? heres the deal me and my significant other have pretty much decided to get a new TV around october, we figured that the a2020s would probally be going for some screaming prices by then. In the mean time ive been looking at the info in the new a3000s and the xbr5s. they look pretty good also. so heres the question: how much better is the xbr5 than the a3000, is it worth the extra money to have drc 2.5 and a few other things, will the PQ be that much better?? also we really dont have the room for a 60 inch, its better sutied to a 55, but if the difference is significant it could be considered. also if the xbr is a nogo how much better will the a3000 be than the a2020. it dosnt seem that much had changed. just 1080p in, 120 hz , 24p and hdmi 1.3. it seems like a lot but will they affect the PQ any?? also it still has drc 1.0 with they have all had since the a2000 correct??? so all the things that the a2000 failed the 3000 should too right?? so im back to this. it it worth the extra money the get the new a3000 or go for a probally great deal on a 2020, or maybe if the price was right I could even get an xbr2, dont know.

basically does all the new features on the new tvs amount to anything more than marketing, if so how much and how much better than the 3000 can the xbr5 be.
