In ten days the big 50 gets to bite me in the backside, but this should help tak a bit of the sting out of it. A gift from my beautiful wife. We got the last NIB unit from a small chain a couple miles from home for less than 1600.00.... It will be here in a week, and I can't wait to get it hooked up.

    It is going to be a perfect fit for the media wall, and far more tv than I could have hoped for or even wanted for that matter. I can't wait to get it on the wall.

    The BIG 50 came and went a while back, I didn't even notice it-to be honest, it didn't feel any different than the BIG 40 and 30 felt like I was still 20? Wait another ten years and you WILL feel that one, because your body will start talking to you more and more-it just won't shut up even when it feels fine! lol

    In the meantime, great deal on a great set!

    Happy B-Day, early!

    Enjoy!

    Hey John your soon to join the ranks of a few fellow 850b owners on the forum, your going to love that set. This is where size matters and yours is bigger :( A heck of a price I paid 1900 for my 55 850b a year ago. If you don't already have this Imax 3d bluray get it as it is eye candy and the best thing to show off that new Sony believe you me the picture will amaze the masses. Congratulations on making it to 50 and the perfect present.

    Very nice score, even nicer that it's a gift from the better half!

    Happy B-Day in advance too.
    So, are you willing to put forth a little effort or are you happy sitting in your skeptical poo pile?
