They had to go and get greedy... I've been saving for 2 years for the Laservue. This confirmed price has put the nail in my Laser TV coffin... Laservue is much cheaper to produce but even so I was bracing myself for a 5000 price tag but 7000 is simply too much.. Sorry Mitsubishi, you've just lost my 5 grand... A Samsung 72" will be in my living room before Christmas... WITH a few extra bulbs to boot.
Yeah its very very ... high. However as all things go in the TV world, the prices will drop. I was not really expecting to get one right now anyhow. I'll wait for a generation 2 (maybe thinner) But also prices will come down by then I'm sure. But I have been waiting for 3 + years.

They're quoting MSRP and who ever pays MSRP? You'll see these for $5000 or even less come holiday.
