RE: iFire in Home Theater Magazine

I've been dozing off with the lack of action on WED but the IR is proving a simmer of hope for some news to come for the longs here. If the specs on an ifire 37" TV is true and the weight comes in at 22 lbs... it would rock the TV landscape. IMO the Sony 40" Bravia XBR model KDL40XBR3 is the best LCD TV in this size range but weighs in at 80 lbs and $4,799 CDN plus taxes ($4500 without the frame), it's more expensive than a plasma and it's a long way from $1,000. I'll continue to hold this stock unless I have a WED nightmare and the wheels fall off the wagon if ifire can't produce their TV. If that happens, I'll cash out and buy this Sony 40" with whatever cash I have left... hopefully that won't ever happen.
