My feature on the latest, greatest high-definition TV bargains currently available ran today at Forbes.com. The most affordable HD technologies are plasma panels and resolutions of 720p. It’s possible to get a 50-inch TV with those elements for about $900. That said, there are some impressive deals on LCD televisions in the 40-inch range that feature the much hyped specs of 1080p resolution and 120Hz. They aren’t essential by any means, but if you must have them, I’ve provided some low-cost options.
