Yup, if the price for these sets is only $747, they really do
represent a new low price point.
I would note two things:
These are CRT displays that weigh in at about 150 pounds.
You can buy the non HD version of the 32" Sanyo with Svideo and
component inputs for $447. This means that the premium for the HD
tuners and drive circuity is just $300 at retail.
