Well this isn't really a consumer electronics discussion forum, but  
it does look like prices are coming down.

You have to watch specs, as everyone measures them differently (what  
the heck is "dynamic" contrast ratio??).

Also, if you are going to use this device with a Myth system, there's  
not much point in paying for tuners you are not going to use, because  
Myth will be doing that for you.

I love it when they list "features" which are simply required by law,  
like CC decoders and V-Chips. I'll bet they also have power switches  
and cords as well, why aren't those "features" ? :-)

But, especially with monitors/tvs, everything is in the eye of the  
beholder. See if you can look at a particular model in a local store,  
even if you are ultimately going to order it from somebody else.
