| I need thin... Like 1-1.5" max. It's side is visible from the kitchen.
I don't want huge - 42" is probably the biggest we can do.
Need 1080p and 240hz if LED or whatever hz if plasma.
Don't need 3D.
I can't find a TV that's thin and not BIG.
Any suggestions? I've gotten so much help on the kitchen forums, I thought I'd try here! |

| The TV itself is thin. Bases and/or wall mounts are what will stick out. So, it's all in how you mount it. |

| We've already installed the in the wall type mount so it will be really flush to the wall. Need a TV that is not 3"+ without the stand. Would like its depth to be .9-1.5" like the big LED's (and a couple of plasma's). Would like to spend < $1300 too. |

| Oh, and it needs a good wide viewing angle too since it's in an area that will be seen from both the kitchen and family room. |

| You may just have to go down to Best buy or Costco or another store with a variety of models and check the sizes on them all. |

| Have you tried a Samsung plasma? They make one model that is about an inch thick. |

| Don't understand your 240 Hz "requirement". The 240 Hz scan idea came about because it's a common denominator that can be used for the multiple frame rate display of video at 60 Hz and film at 24 Hz (frame rate). Why do you need that for a 42" television you may see from the kitchen? In every other aspect you have a ton of choices available. |

| We ended up ordering the samsumg plasma in the 1 inch thick variety. y.b. the 240hz requirement came from my DH who saw the diff between 120 and 240 at best buy. But in reality, i think the plasma beats that anyway for not blurring fast action and messing with the viewing angle. |
