HDTV assistance please

[Guru]

My dad has decided to make the jump to HD and is going big.

I would love some help finding him a few choices of 60" HDTVs around the $2000 and under range.

Found a Sony Bravia at Sears for $1699

the same TV at Newegg is $1999.

Any opinions or other options you may know about would be appreciated. Also, is the one at sears a good option or should I have him wait until next week for the superbowl sales?

I have a 50" LG plasma and a 55" LG LED/LCD.

While I do agree that the plasma has a better picture, it's more than offset by the heat output/energy costs.

I won't be buying another plasma.

My 60hz LCD put out way more heat than my Plasma. They don't put out near the heat they used to.
