Klegg Media Center HDTV

[JSanders]

I am not sure if this is the right message to submit to this group but
I need some advice on a possible purchase. I don't know a whole lot
about computers but I was told one of these groups might be a good
place to get some help. I came across a deal on a Klegg Media Center
HDTV and I wasnt sure if it would be worth picking up since I had
never heard of the company. It was offered to me for about $2000 and
I think it retails for about twice that. The specifications can be
found here (http://www.kleggusa.com/MediaPCTV2.html). I was hoping
someone in this group has had some experience with this tv or at least
the company and could tell me if this might be a decent deal. Any
help you could give would be appreciated. Thanks

Financial Highlights
Sales* 256,000.00 (so they sold 64 TVs ?)

Will the warranty be honored, if the company fails ?

I don't mind buying something in a standard form factor, that
can be repaired by replacing key subsystems with standard components.
But that thing is a compact, elegant package. If one little thing
goes inside it, and the company is not there to help, you'll have
a $2K boat anchor. I'd want to understand just what coverage they
provide, whether a nationwide repair network is in place, etc.

I can see product listings here, but no products yet. It has only been a
few days since they signed some deals.

There is some kind of dealer network here, so maybe you can arrange a
demo and talk to someone.

Sounds like a nice TV and such for the price.
Supports full 1080i; so it's "real" HDTV.

It *could* be used as a monitor; but not supporting 1080p, I'd be
worried about flicker. You'd also need a video-card with HDTV output
since it doesn't list VGA type inputs like some do. (ATI makes several
cards that would work.)

As a TV though, sounds not too bad.

Still, for about $1400, I saw a real nice 42" LCD Television that
supports 1080p, down at Sam's club a few weeks ago. Which is strange;
other LCD televisions with only 720p resolution and the same dimensions
were going for over $2000 a the same place.

Wished I could have afforded one ... But damned if I know where I'd put
it if I bought one.
