I Start My New Year Resolution with One Big Ass screen LCD TV

My passion for flat screen TV started in 2004. LCD monitors back than are small between 15” – 19” not to mention small and expensive too.

One day while shopping, I saw a sharp 19” AQUOS LCD TV that cost more than RM3500 – I thought to myself I got to get one of those.

This is my 19” LCD monitor that I bought in 2004 it cost me RM2300 (USD605) vs. the new 40” that cost only RM1599 (USD515).

What You Don’t Bother to Want

Slimness – As you may have notice This unit is not slim – in fact this is not a slim series as seen on Plasma or LED TV latest unit brand. Cheaper slim series come with lesser connector some only include one or two HDMI input and that’s about it. The problem with current trend was the advertisement – slimmer the cooler and better. Check your budget before you settle down with your unit that last another 3 years before the new one (cheaper) rules the market.

Social networking – Adding this features onto the HDTV is adding extra cost to the unit. I’m waiting for Steve Jobs break through for TV. This unit do not have this feature so it okay.
