New TV

So a few months ago I bought a new television, the 43″ Samsung HLM437W. The day I got it, I realized it had what looked like white clouds under the screen, so I called Tweeter to send a guy out and look at it.

When the guy shows up, the thing won’t even turn on. Turns out I have struck the infamous three blinking lights problem. He agreed to exchange it for a new set. Well… the sets were supposed to come in Friday, Feb 21st… now they’re slated to come in March 14th. Great.

Yesterday I called up the guy at Tweeter, and he agreed to sell me the Sony 50XBR800 at the same discount he gave me on the Samsung (about $500 off). I hope this new one isn’t a piece of crap too.
