BTW-For mounts and audio/videophile quality cables-optical, HDMI, component, etc at rock bottom prices, go to monoprice.com.

I wasn't trying to say Circuit City had the best prices. But if you would happen to buy from there, you can get 10% off.

Another high quality cable supplier is Blue Jeans Cable.

They're Certified Belden Cable Assemblers.

A bit pricey, though.

It's obvious the retailers are taking advantage of the "Mob Hysteria" associated with "Black Friday" and the holiday shopping frenzy. I'm glad I checked out this thread!!!

The c42u I do believe is a silver colored TV? I also have a 36 inch in that series and it is an awsome TV as well. It has a 4ms response time compared to the d62u series I have which is 6ms...in other words it responses better to fast movement like in action movies where you might get some tracing, or some call it, ghosting. The d64u is the new line of Aquos TV's and they are roughly the same as the 62 series accept they are a bit lighter and there is an optional 65 inch Tv in that line.

I got some from Amazon at about $15.00 with gold ends. Shure beat Monsters $120.00 for a HDMI

P.S. Love the Naso Tang, now could you put him back in my tank
