Plasma TV Sales - Pick Your Favorite Sony Or Samsung TV

Plasma TV Sales - Pick Your Favorite Sony Or Samsung TV

Compared to traditional cathode tube televisions, plasma screens offer an uniform image across the screen, offering a larger resolution at the same time. Plasma TVs can easily support high resolution video input, such as HDTV and DTV signals. Unlike LCD screens of cathode tube screens, plasma screens can be viewed from any angle without any quality loses. This means that no matter where you are in the room, you will see the same color reproduction and image sharpness. Unlike older cathode tube displays, plasma TVs are completely flat. This also means their viewing angles are great and are unaffected by viewing angles. Plasma TVs have a significant advantage over rear projection TVs as they are slim and weigh only a fraction compared to projection TV sets. Similar in size and weight with the LCD screens, they are easier to maneuver and install in your house.

Important plasma TV manufacturers, such as Sony, Panasonic or Samsung, create their own plasma screens (unlike some other manufacturers that buy the screens from other producers) and constantly develop and enhance the features offered in their latest models. Plasma TVs are versatile pieces of equipment. They usually offer a full range of connectors, supporting laptops, stand alone computers, DVD and HD players. They are the perfect solution for a large living room or your office bureau, especially after their prices have dropped over the past few years. There are numerous plasma TVs available on the market, so choosing the right model for you is only a matter of taste and budget.

You are interested in a plasma TV, you should know what exactly what they consist of. Plasma TVs make use of several million small fluorescent light sources to create the images displayed on the screen. These very small light sources are put between two layers of special glass that have many electrodes throughout their surface. When a small electric current passes through these electrodes, the light sources become active, emitting a small amount of light. When combined, all these millions light sources produce a very bright, very vivid image. A significant advantage plasma screens offer is the huge screen size, obtained easily than comparative technologies (such as LCD screens, for example).

The market for large screen TVs is on a rapid growth as their prices have dropped significantly over the past few years. While a few years ago buying a large screen plasma TV would mean you had to pay through the nose, you can now buy a modern unit for as low as $1,200 in online shops. Plasma TVs together with projection TV sets are the only solutions offering large screens, superb resolution and image quality for affordable prices. There are LCD TVs that have huge diagonals but they are built on very new, very expensive technologies. While you can find plasma TV sales as low as $1,200, larger models, that use the latest available technologies, can be sold for as much as over $8,000. However, these very expensive models are aimed at large conference halls and the business sector and cheaper, more affordable models offer the same image quality and sound output.

Customer Review: Saving money on your heating bill, and being green at the same time
Very good product. Set your control unit, such as a TV, and then allow your speaker system, VCR, DVD, and other peripherals on the auto-switch plugs and when your TV is off, your other energy burning electronics are cut off too.
Customer Review: So Far, So Good
I saw this item on Oprah a while ago and have been determined to buy one ever since. For a while, they were a bit scarce, but not any more it seems. In any event, I have a lot of computer things, several printers several scanners, and lots of doo-dads that hook into all of these things. Without even exploring the more advanced settings of the Smart Strip, I can say that I am pleased with the fact that when I turn the mother ship off (a.k.a. my cpu) everthing that only functions when the computer is on shuts off as well and I know that in time, that will make a huge difference. I no longer see the many blue indicator lights on peripherals that aren't being used and it's nice. I will be hooking one of these babies up to the TV soon.


8 Smart Grocery Shopping Tips

Spending too much on groceries can quickly eat up your monthly food budget.

Below you'll find eight useful tips that are easy to put into practice and that can help you to keep more of your hard earned money in your pocket.

1. Don't by frozen dinners.

Instead of buying these overpriced convenience meals, freeze your leftovers or put together your own frozen meals.

Then, when you need something for dinner or would like something to eat, you'll have several delicious meals to choose from that are not only cheaper but also better for you.

2. Use coupons.

Even if you only save a dollar a week using coupons, you'll still end up saving over 40 dollars for the year.

Steer clear of using coupons for things you don't need or don't usually buy.

Only use coupons for things you are going to purchase anyway and only when you really are getting a good deal.

3. Keep an eye on the scanner.

If you shop at a store long enough you will be overcharged at some point, probably several times.

Make sure this doesn't happen to you by paying attention to what the store charges you and by bringing mistakes to the attention of the cashier whenever you see them.

4. Purchase off brands and store brands.

Another way to save money on food is to buy the store brand or off brand of things you buy on a regular basis such as ketchup, mustard, cereal, and canned goods.

The money that you save by switching will add up over time, and you may find that you can't tell much if any difference between some of the off or store brands and the higher priced name brands.

5. Do the work yourself.

Give less of your money to the grocery store by grating your own cheese and carrots and shredding your own lettuce.

Also cut and marinate your own meats and cook up your own hamburger patties instead of buying the packaged ones.

6. Leave the kids at home.

Kids can help you to add unneeded items to your cart.

If you find yourself often caving into them, leave them at home with your spouse and get the grocery shopping done yourself.

7. Don't shop while you're hungry.

You could make it a point to shop on Saturday or Sunday after your family breakfast.

You could also keep a non perishable food item in your glove compartment such as pretzels or dried fruit so that you'll have something to snack on before you begin your grocery shopping if you're feeling hungry.

8. Meal plan.

Planning out your meals can help you to eliminate or cut down on purchasing groceries you don't need.

It can also help you to stop making extra trips to the grocery store in search of something to make for dinner.

If you're busy and find it hard to have regular family dinners, planning your meals can also make your dinner time more enjoyable by getting your loved ones together to talk and have quality time together.

Toshiba, 19LV506, 19", LCD HDTV/DVD Combo, White
Customer Review: Not Completely Satisfied
The picture quality on this TV is excellent. I am currently on analog with substandard cable and a splitter in the attic (older house) and it still shows a nice picture HOWEVER the sound quality is not good. It is very disappointing. It takes the points away from the very nice picture. I have to turn the sound all the way up (100%) sometimes just to hear it good. I've never had to turn the sound all the way up on any TV. I am sensitive to sound. I'm usually turning sound down on TV's. I even mute commercials because I don't want to hear the sound. The sound I do hear is "tinny". I've played with the bass and treble and balance on the menu but it's still not what I feel it should be. I have cheaper brand TV's where the sound is much better. I'm so disappointed because I have a 37" Toshiba LCD TV in the living room and the sound on that one is fine. Don't know what happened here. I've considered returning it but I already threw the box away. I should have waited.
Customer Review: Exceeded Expectations
Looks great. Has much better picture than comparable home brands of same size from Best Buy, etc. Replaces a bedroom 13" CRT w/VHS player. Brings in off-the-air analog and digital signals just fine. DVD picture quality is great, too. I've read other reviews which said sound quality was sub-par, but we think it's fine for our purposes. I'd recommend it to a friend.
