Ahhhhh the horror of it all

I know that in 6 months HDTVs will have dropped at least 25% in price. I know that I should wait for this to happen before buying but I want one now. The 47" at Costco is too expensive for my budget so I'm still watching and waiting. My goal is a 1080P 42" LCD for $1000. Nothing in that range now but I'm hoping to have it by SuperBowl time.
