Lucky man :D

LMAO...+1

$2500 is really tight for a TV that size, to be honest. There's a Sharp you can get for $2499 but that is before tax, so when all is said and done, closer to $3K. Plasmas - personally I would forget about them because the cost goes up significantly once you get past 60". Might want to consider a slightly smaller TV, otherwise the Sharp may in fact be the only model in that price range (the selection of 70" TVs is not that big to begin with).

IMHO, sharp and samsung has better color display than anyone else, so it would be your ok tv

PS:I'm more interested in how you get a compromise from a man on electronics

Not to belittle your gesture, but just want to make sure he's the type of guy who's not OCD about his electronics. I can't bear to let anyone buy me anything electronic because i want to research and pick out the particular one that has the features that i want.

For example if my wife offered me $3k to buy a TV i might decide that a higher end 60" plus some fun accessories would be much preferable to the cheapest 70".

But that's just me.
