The PT-50LC14 is a 50-inch LCD rear-projection TV. It's one of the least-expensive LCD-powered sets of this size on the market; despite a list price of $3,000, it sells for as little as $2,200 online.

Upside: While not as thin as a flat-panel plasma or LCD, the PT-50LC14 is, like other microdisplay sets, relatively light (84 pounds) and slim (15.3 inches). The PT-50LC14 includes some extra features, such as an SD/PCMCIA card slot so that you can look at digital photos on the TV. Its connectivity is highlighted by an HDMI port.
