But, like supermodels, flat-panel TVs don't come cheap: A typical 30-inch LCD TV can cost you $1300 and up. So, if you're thinking of investing a big chunk of change like that, when is a good time to buy? The answer, it seems, is now. While prices of flat-panel TVs fell freely over the past year, those prices now are only inching downward, experts say. "Right now, prices have stabilized for both LCD TVs and plasma [TVs]," says Eric Haruki, research manager for displays and projectors at IDC. Prices will decline through the year, but not at the same frenzied rate, he says. "It makes no sense to wait if you truly want the product now," Haruki says."</i><br /><br /> <img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/plasma_tv.jpg" /> <br /><br />What they heck, right? :wink:
