In any case, price or not, avoid these guys like the plague.

What is the difference between models? (w1, w2, w3)
LVM-37w1 — 1080p, 12ms response time, gray bezel, NTSC tuner (no HDTV tuner)
LVM-37w2 — 720p, 8ms response time, black-gray bezel, NTSC+HDTV tuners
LVM-37w3 — 1080p, 8ms response time, black-gray bezel, no tuner

All three have the same contrast, brightness, viewing angles, speakers, etc. The w1 is a normal TV with HD capability. The w2 is a pure HDTV, best choice for TV buffs but not for computer/gaming. The w3 is just a monitor and the best overall, but it requires an external tuner for TV. The w2 and the w3 look identical and differ only in resolution. Sometimes you see the w1 at BestBuy, but chances are they’ll have it connected to a crappy source to make you buy Sonys and Samsungs, so take that into account.
