A:Answer As with all high tech "gadgets" once you purchase it, it will be out of date. The rate that electronics are evolving is exponential. Think about your phone...I'm not one that purchases a new phone every year, I understand, that yes, the new phone will have better features "next year." but you just can live your life that way, unless you are independently wealthy and money is no object. Do your research, and bite the bullet! If you have the funds to purchase this TV, for what my opinion is worth, the only thing I would tell you is that this seems to be an OUTSTANDING buy at this price point.
