You can justify the price by saying that the 80” model (AQUOS LC-80LE632U 80” LED-LCD TV - 16:9 - HDTV 1080p - 1080p - 120 Hz) which as of right now goes for $4,375.88 at Amazon.

Thank you for helping me justify this splurge. I didnt take a vacation this year, and I have been very, very good.
That settles it then ;-)
My first widescreen TV was a 55" Rear Projection TV cost me just a hair over $4700. Bought it on Labor Day, 2000. The TV still works, but has a slightly annoying 3D effect which wouldn't be a problem IF it was a 3D tv.
