Q. Could someone give a brief overview of the differences between LED and HDTV? (I am thinking of purchasing something around 40 inches.)
Also, my purchase would not have to coincide with a Superbowl party. Do you think that prices would be better before or after the game? Or is there a better time of year to purchase a new televsion as new models are introduced?

A. There are 3 type of HDTV which popular in market now LCD HDTV, Plasma HDTV and LED HDTV.
Plasma uses gas plasma cells charged by precise electrical voltages to create a picture.
LCD screens (liquid crystal display) are in layman's terms sandwiches made up of liquid crystal pushed in the space between two glass plates. Images are created by varying the amount of electrical charge applied to the crystals
LED-backlit LCD television or LED TV is an LCD TV that uses LED backlighting rather than fluorescent lights used in traditional LCD televisions
Each technology have their pro & con, here are pro & con for your decision
Pros of Plasma
- Better contrast ratio
- better ability to render deep blacks, more color depth,
- better motion tracking (response time)
- more availability in very large screen sizes.
Cons of Plasma
- more susceptible to burn-in (although this is not as much of a factor now, due to technology improvements in the past few years)
- more heat generation (as well as more power consumption)
- screen glare in brightly lit rooms
- heavier weight, and more delicate to ship.
Good brand that I would recommend for Plasma is Panasonic or Samsung

Pros of LCD
- LCD television advantages include no burn-in susceptibility
- cooler running
- less screen glare, more functional at high altitudes
- longer display life (although improvements are being made in Plasma screen life)
- looks better in brightly lit rooms
- less power consumption than Plasma.
Cons of LCD
- Lower contrast ratio
- not as good rendering deep blacks
- not as good at tracking motion (although this is improving, especially with the implementation of 120Hz refresh rates (and some now offer 240Hz) on higher-end models).
Good brand for LCD that I would recommend is Samsung or Sony

Pros & Cons of LED is almost same as LCD but LED come with better contrast ratio,better picture quality , super slim and 40% less power consumption but higher price

There are good deals before Superbowl party and another good time is around March which there will be new model out and price of old model will drop down.

What is the best HDTV on the market today?
Q. I'm looking to buy a new tv and i was wanting to know best brand, best type (LCD, Plasma, LED, etc..) and best value.
I am also look for something under $2000.
And what all do I need to look for when buying?
I am also look for something under $2000.
And what all do I need to look for when buying?
A. Well i don't know what size you're looking for so i'm going to assume you're looking for sizes 42" or larger?!
What you should be looking for is a TV with high native contrast ratios and fast response times and/or refresh rates. These categories insure the best picture quality. Plasma TV's have the best numbers in all of these categories! They have the highest native contrast ratio(40,000:1) with Infinite dynamic black levels or Infinite dynamic contrast ratio! They have near instant response time(.001ms) and super fast refresh rates(600hz)! This insures that they maintain the sharpest pic possible with fast motion content like sports, movies & gaming!
The best brands of Plasma are: Pioneer, Panasonic & Samsung. Stay away from anything else! Pioneers are the best of the best but expensive! Panasonic's are just as good as Pioneers, but much more affordable. Samsung's come close to Panasonics, but lack their reliability(but not by much)!
Here are some TV's that i highly recommend:
Panasonic TC-P54S1 1080p 54": http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=9280164&type=product&id=1218073533060
