Do i get a PDPLX5090! argh.....
I currently have a Pio 4280 8G set and a Panasonic PX80. Im really tempted by a bigger set, either a projector ( looking at the optoma hd700 ) or a Pio LX5090.....
I can get a pdplx5090 + 5yr warrenty for £2127
PIONEER PDPLX5090 **INSTORE PROMO** FREE 5 YEAR WARRANTY OR **ONLINE PROMO** Free Pioneer DVD Player DV310 Black/Silver ( price match to richer sounds )
Then sell my panny px80 for £500 to a mate. Leaving me £1627 to pay for this upgrade.... Shall i do this or buy the projector.....?
Im a student if that makes any real difference here, i certainly dont "NEED" this screen, and the room it will go into is tiny.
But something keeps drawing me towards it!

Save your money, trust me, it will be useful after uni.
Then go for a big plasma or projector

forget all this" save you money were in a credit crisis" if you can afford it go for it, the 5090 is a cracking set and is miles ahead of both your current tvs

Spolit brat 
I just saw how good the 5090 was compared to the older 8G set I was upgrading from (TLCs faults ) and had to get myself a credit card. 12months interest free on purchases so enough time to pay it off
Enjoy your set you little brat
