No mention of HDMI 1.3 scares me...I dunno about you but if I'm dropping 5 large CDN$ on a T.V I want to ensure it is completely future-proof. HD-DVD and BluRay will be utilising the 1.3 standard very soon...so if watching T.V is your thing--no worries. But, if you are and avvid movie fan I might sit this one out boys.
