    Although the specs on this LG HDTV pretty much put it at the head of its class (72 inches, 3D-ready, local-dimming LEDs, 400Hz (barf), in-TV access to local and remote content), I just don’t like the look. Am I crazy? I just think it’s kind of gaudy-looking. I think I’m more of a thin-bezel wall-mount kind of guy. That little crystal base isn’t doing it for me.

    They’ll be showing off the LZ9700 at CES, though, so we’ll get a better look then at what they’re claiming is the word’s biggest something or other. Every device out there now is the world’s somethingest these days.
