I'm in the market for a nice LCD HDTV, preferably 1080p 40+ inches.

Samsung makes a nice 1080p LCD TV with 6000:1 contrast ratio at 40 inches for 1999 at Best Buy.

Although I prefer Sharp for the LCD TVS. They make a 1080p TV with 42 inches for slightly over 2000, while a 52 inch is just under 3 grand. Those have 10000:1 contrast ratio.

Should I just stick with my crappy Cathode Ray SDTV for a little longer to get a Laser TV later this coming year?
