I finally got myself an HDTV. A couple of weeks ago as I prpared to move I decided that I was going to cancel my Shaw Cable TV and move to Bell ExpressVu. I was excited about the PVR and picking up a few more time shifting channels but mostly I was excited about getting a clearer all digital picture.

So I found a del on the Toshiba 42AV500U 42 inch 720P LCD.

I am right now looking at the box that holds my TV. I have had this new Toshiba TV for two weeks now but did not want to open the box and have trouble transporting it so it has stayed in the box and I look longingly at it everyday. On Saturday I will be getting the Satellite hooked up and tomorrow I will be getting a stand and then everything will get pulled together.

Tomorrow the Wii gets pulled out, no component video for the Wii yet but maybe I will get the Wii component video cables tomorrow as well. I will hook up the surround sound stereo. I will pop in a DVD, either Fight Club (my favorite) or maybe Almost Famous with that great concert footage.

Anyway sometime in the next couple of days I will go through everything on this cheap HDTV and do a thorough review in case you are in the market for your first HDTV.
