Since subscribing to VOOM, we have now added 2 HDTVs with today's purchase of a 26" Samsung Dyna-Flat HDTV for the bedroom. Anyway....curious to see how many HD sets the average VOOMer possesses. (HD Projectors and PCs included)

Three for me: 55" Mitsubishi CRT RPTV, 50" Sony GWIV LCD RPTV, 26" Samsung CRT.

I'm a poor boy, just one 52" RCA RPTV for me.

There's been some awesome deals lately, tho. Circuit City had 53" RPTV (no-name brand) for $799 last weekend.

The one you're talking about was an AKAI. It doesn't have a DVI or HDMI port, just components.

Yup, AKAI. Quality, I'm sure. :) But who am I to talk, I have an RCA. Has anyone actually had any experiences with AKAI? Might make a good second HDTV set?

I see Best Buy now sells a 52" GE model that looks exactly like the RCA does. Was $899 on Black Friday. Still $300 off (same savings as the RCA last year, but it was $999 back then).

Actually I find PQ better over component for RPTV. Colors are just more vibrant than DVI. And I doubt we will ever see the component downrezing scare materialize.

3 HDTV's in this household with VOOM. Sanyo FP with 112" screen, 46 Mits in the bedroom, 32" Sony in the family room. Can't wait for the VOOM DVR to get rid of the HTPC.

I have none, I waited for the price to drop and for the quality of the product to improve, and it still looks like there are some improvements that can be made and a big price reduction to happen on the LCD, DLP and plasma HD televisions.

I'm cheating, I'm counting my PC monitor as a HD set in addition to my pj. I used it as my HD display for 3 years before I bought my pj.

I have two new ones-Sony KDE42XBR950 plasma on the den wall, 22" Samsung LCD HD in the bedroom...excellent VOOM resolution on both! It's interesting to compare the two formats, as they both look great in different ways...
