Target Hdtv Deal

Well, I know this should probably go in some other forum, but this is a good deal for anyone interested in buying an HDTV (for xbox360)


I just got a samsung 26" widescreen hdtv (model 2670) for $337.xx at target including tax.  It is on clearance right now.  Used to be $699, now marked down to $350 (50%), and I got an additional 10% off by getting the target card.  WOO!  Great deal.  This tv has many great features and i will post more about it when I get home.  I also just ordered xbox Component cables for $5.01 shipped off ebay (to hold me over until the 360)

This tv is last years model, however, the only thing that changed in the new one was that the tv went from DVI to HDMI and is now black.  All other features are the same.  Also, the DVI on this TV supports the HD copy protection junk that will be coming soon.  And has a built in tuner  pop.gif

Check your local target... I dont know if this is nationwide as it is a clearance, but I found it on another forum and went to my target and sure enough... 350.  Check it out!

Thanks for all the info.

"This tv is last years model, however, the only thing that changed in the new one was that the tv went from DVI to HDMI and is now black."

I know what DVI is because my computer uses it for the monitor, but what is HDMI and which is better?  Also, if I get one that is HDMI, will my xbox be able to use its HD pack for it?

At that size I'd much rather have a CRT over an LCD... response time, color, black levels, etc wll all be superior on a CRT, not to mention it's cheaper (even if they're both well below the $1K mark).

Unless you're REALLY REALLY hard up for space I'd go with the CRT in a heartbeat.
