I\'m considering buying this television...
RCA 52'' Widescreen, Model D52W23
Best Buy now has it at $800 plus tax with free shipping. It's a rear-projection TV, and I've heard that the old school big screen TV's with rear-projection break easily. Does anyone have any experience or know anybody with experience with a TV like this? Basically, I want a big screen TV like this, but I don't want to pay through the nose for it. This strikes me as a pretty good deal. |

That looks sick! Perfect for my dormroom. Thanks for the link.
I've had a TV like this before. It worked really well. We had a hitachi that lasted for about 10 years. |

Re: I\'m considering buying this television...
i'm confused why you would waste money on a technology that is now starting to become obsolete.
the picture is pretty [censored] on these projection tvs. spend a little extra cash and get an HDTV. |

Shakes,
This is a solid TV. If $800 is your budget, its a great compromise. Check froogle.com to see if you can find it elsewhere than best buy - assuming you probably have a best buy in your state you'll have to pay sales tax. Find another online merchant through froogle and should be able to save close to $100 - just be sure to compare the shipping costs. |

Best Buy does have some sale on TV's going on right now, so that's probably the reason. Thanks to everyone for the info. |

I just looked into this further. It's not available for delivery or pickup anywhere in Ohio. I'm not sure what this means, but I would assume I'd be able to order it in to a nearby store.
