Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I've found myself using my PC for a lot of conversations lately, and I'm also considering recording a podcast to share with anyone who will listen. There are tons of USB headset / microphones out there, and I'm hoping someone has some solid recommendations based on experience. I'll consider both headsets and standalone mics, by the way, but I'd like to keep the bill under $100 if possible. Help!"
They had to go and get greedy... I've been saving for 2 years for the Laservue. This confirmed price has put the nail in my Laser TV coffin... Laservue is much cheaper to produce but even so I was bracing myself for a 5000 price tag but 7000 is simply too much.. Sorry Mitsubishi, you've just lost my 5 grand... A Samsung 72" will be in my living room before Christmas... WITH a few extra bulbs to boot.
They're quoting MSRP and who ever pays MSRP? You'll see these for $5000 or even less come holiday.
Yeah its very very ... high. However as all things go in the TV world, the prices will drop. I was not really expecting to get one right now anyhow. I'll wait for a generation 2 (maybe thinner) But also prices will come down by then I'm sure. But I have been waiting for 3 + years.
