And that's on a 106" screen, 7 foot roughly side to side.
And yes in Holland/Europe EVERYTHING is expensive. I just spent 2 weeks in Italy and though things are relatively the same price when you take into account the conversion of the US dollar to the euro things become very costly.
And let me add that my satellite provider has hi-def channels and those channels give out amazing picture quality even though they are only 480p.

mmm maybe i should also mentioned that digital telly inst a commen thing in holland, when hubby bought that telly we had "analoog" telly (beats me how that is mentioned in usa) but digital telly is not used in holland much (to expensieve), but when buying a big telly you realy see the difference between "digital and analoog" , we had "analoog" so when we got the big telly, looking at it was a hell, i didnt wanna see all those bad stripes and snowy thing, so new thing we got digital telly, hugeeeeeeeeeeeeee difference !! in holland we have to relay what the companies offer us and that isnt much, like i said we are way behind on that tech stuff compaired with USA.
btw 106 is that inch? The biggest inch screen you can get here is 70 inch and that one cost 33000 euro so say about 52000 dollars
