Samsung PN51D450/440 51" 720P Plasma $499 At Electronics & Furniture, GTA Only,PM BB?
This little company here in the GTA with 5 stores has this well liked 720P (1360 x 768) 51" plasma in their ad on page 17 of the 24 Hour paper today. This can be seen online on the 24 Hour site although the address changes as the new paper comes out. This company claims that these are new, that they are authorized, and come with a 3 month exchange from them and a 1 year manufacturers warranty. Limited quantities. It might need further research, though. For the PN51D450 it might be possible to get a PM at BB/FS ($599) for $467. Worth a try, but very YMMV.
This display is rated well, and from most accounts is reliable, and looks great. I have one, and it is IMO. Yes it's a plasma, and yes it's 720P, but it is 1360 x 768 unlike the 50" Panasonic and LG 720P models this year that are actually 1024 x 768. So if you want to sit closer than 6 feet to the display or use it as a monitor for regular office tasks, pass. Otherwise it's a great BFTB choice.
Update 5/11/12: Electronics & Furniture has this TV back in their new ad in todays 24 Hour paper at $499. So a PM at BB/FS will be $489 if successful.
