I'd suggest the Sony BRAVIA full HD. We got one and it's really a nice TV.

As for the 3D, with a budget of $2000 you won't get a 3D TV. Those things are are really expensive.

Yea I wouldn't really recommend a 3D TV, unless you have over 2,500 dollar to spend.

LCD is better then plasma because LCD saves more energy so less energy costs. LED is even better then that and has waay more clearer image. So I recommend LED if you can afford is, they are like 1000 euro here for a 50 inch I think.

Go look at the LCD panel manufacturer if you can. Best Buy's brand uses Mitsubishi sometimes Philips and Samsung (rare, supposedly) for a cheaper price, same panel. Difference may just be the tuner or the sound, but hella cheaper.

I'll check that out as well.

Aren't you Turkish? You have Best Buy? We don't even have that here :(

This is a nice one. Will cost you around $980 / €805. (Official Sony Link)

The Sony comment.. lol?

Samsung 55">Cheaper than Sony Bravia 55"

I'd say get a Sony, but as much as I love Sony I wouldn't pay a few hundred more for the same thing. It's the same for every other size as well.

Yep.

Thanks for the replies.

We got a Samsung 40" LCD for about ~$1,010 dollars.

exact model:

Samsung LN40C650

I've been looking at that model at Walmart, they have one for $799. But I need to tear out my entertainment center - not enough room for that TV.

Good buy, from what I hear. Gratz.
