Both are for about the same price. What do you think is the better deal? I have a PS3 and have been looking for a HDMI receiver. Thanks.

The one that's 1080p, unless you absolutely need 3 HDMI inputs.

I have three HDMI inputs on my TV and I dont know what the third would ever be used for. I have a PS3 and HD-DVR on HDMI. What else would I use? I guess if you have a PS3, an 360 elite and a DVR thats still three.

I'm not tech savvy but Cable/dish + PS3 + Surround sound = 3 unless one of them doesn't need to run HDMI.

Buy an AV receiver with HDMI or an HDMI switcher if you need more than 2 HDMI ports.

I just got a 1080p w/4 HDMI inputs and I'm using 3 of them. 42" Toshiba. I had a 720p and I would never go back to that. I found a BB coupon online for 10% off plus got 2 years no interest. If you can swing it, go with the 1080P.

I just got it this past Sat night along with a 360. Isn't it an absolutely gorgeous tv? I can't believe how great the picture is.
