Will prices drop on digitial televisions after Xmas? Will they go down after "the big switch"? Will they go down (or up) because we are now officially in a depression (since last December!!)?

I'm in the market for a 42" 1080P, 120Hz w/ ATSC/QAM. Any suggestions?

There's only so far they can drop. Read an article the other day that said the 32" LCD screens that the TV manfacturers buy to put in their TV's cost $233 to produce. When they are selling them for $450, that ain't alot of profit once all the costs are factored in.

John Matarese does some decent reports from time to time and this is what he had to say.
