Widescreen Plasma TVs, $2500+

Think of plasma TVs as a neon sign controlled by a computer: Two plates of glass have microscopic bubbles of neon and xenon gas with pixels between them. When the gas in these televisions is excited by an electrical charge, it gives off photons which make the pixels glow. Plasma televisions are part of the new flat panel television revolution; they are wide screen HD TVs, and, before you ask, they can also be big screen, like a 50" plasma TV or even bigger! What more could a sports fan or movie lover want in a plasma TV? (Maybe year-round clearance sale prices -- oh, wait, Overstock.com has them, too!)

Plasma TVs offer high resolution with a smooth, even image across the whole screen. Using the new digital television signals, a plasma TV can display billions of colors for a truly realistic picture and a distortion-free wide viewing angle. Plasma TVs are light enough for a TV wall mount or TV shelf. If you prefer a TV stand, your plasma television becomes the center of a great home theater system, with DVD or DVR, VCR, CD -- a whole alphabet of electronics for the family to enjoy. Since plasma televisions are flat panel televisions, all of this will require a lot less space than your old entertainment center. Of course, if you'd like a room-dominating entertainment center, check out the Overstock.com furniture store, we'd be happy to sell you one.

Soon, all television sets will be HD televisions; get ahead of the curve and bring it in under budget with a discount TV (that's a discount TV, not a cheap TV!) from the plasma TV wizards at Overstock.com.
