I'm starting to look for a new widescreen HDTV, not a thin Plasma. I know little about what's the best buy (no pun intended) for your buck these days. I've got and old 50" widescreen that's about had it. There's a huge price range on these. I'm looking in the $1000 to $3000 price range. I'd like a 50"-52" screen. I have digital cable with a cable box/remote and Sat. Do I still need a built in HDTV tuner? There's so much to consider. DLP,cableCARD,HDMI/DVI.
If anybody can give me any info or recommendation, I would really appreciate it.

I read this off a tech forum and how true is what this guy says on advice?
"I am running a 44 inch Toshiba DLP, and High Def, first off HIGH DEF is a must, once you see it , it`s hard to watch standard definition, I would go Satallite as it is the ONLY true digital feed out there, HDMI and DVI are basically the same thing, where HDMI is both video/audio, and DVI is dedicated video, I am running a Monster DVI, it ran me 169.00+taxes Canadian, the pic is totally amazing. Keep in mind for DLP or LCD make sure you have the distance for proper viewing as far as distance goes or it will look like shit. Depending on you you talk to people are either all for DLP and against LCD or vics versa, I spent months comparing, and I went with DLP, if you go LCD Haitachi is the best of the Market, for DLP Toshiba, or Panasonic..Hope this helps."
