I bought a Vizio 60" LED Smart TV about a year ago at Sam's Club for $978 and added 3 years onto the warranty for $79. A couple of weeks ago Sam's advertized the TV for $898. I've also seen the same unit at Walmart and Best Buy. The picture is so good, my neighbor bought the exact same unit right after seeing mine.

So far for Smart TV I've only used Netflix and YouTube. I'm a fan of the British band Muse and they have several full concerts in HD on YouTube and it's nice to be able to watch them on my TV instead of a computer, especially with my surround sound setup. I did have to run a second patch cord back to my amp to get the surround sound when using Smart TV.
