Rear-projection TVs are still around, even if all the HDTV news lately has been about plasma. They don't get much love because of all the room they take up, but their picture quality is still great, and the cost can be significantly cheaper than a like-size plasma. Optoma has (sort of) solved the space issue as well, giving you a lot more bang for your buck. By building a rear-projection TV right into a wall, it takes up just as much space as a plasma. The biggest plasma HDTVs available are extremely expensive — the 71-inch LG plasma lists for 70 grand, for example. But the Optoma "BigVizion" HDBV3100 is a 100-inch 1080p DLP rear-projection TV that's custom-built into your wall, and the hit on your wallet for the movie theater-sized screen is about $20,000 (plus whatever you're paying your custom installer, of course). If that's a little much, Optoma also produces 90- and 80-inch versions that are lighter on the budget and on your wall. So what are you waiting for? A 100-inch HDTV for $20,000 is a bargain! Let us know when you get it hooked up and we'll bring over a six-pack and The Notebook on DVD.
