Arrived last week. Using it to run 220 products from China very similar to the soymilk maker below.

What is the benefit of buying the 220 from China?

**pm01** · 03-01-2011, 07:34 PM

In this case the particular soymilk maker we bought can't be purchased in the United States. A few of these types of products found in the United States just does not produce the quality output she's used to in China. We use it almost daily and it takes only about 15 minutes. My wife brings things like this back whenever she returns from China. We also have a rice cooker from China but I honestly can't tell much difference than the Japanese brand we've bought here.

OK... how about some help with making my next big purchase? I want to upgrade my TV. There are just too many options and I get overwhelmed with the choices. And I know in the past we've had lots of discussions about TVs on here so I figured you guys could help me

Here's what I do know I want:

1. HD (duh)

2. LCD or LED, not Plasma

3. 46" or less (not gonna put it on the wall, and don't want to buy a new piece of furniture, so that's about the biggest that will fit on what I have now) ... (that's what she said)

4. Price isn't really an issue, I want good quality. When I decided last fall I was going to get a new one whenever I got around to finding the time to shop for one, I was thinking $1500-$2000 range but now it looks like all the 46" ones are less than that

Currently I have a Sharp Aquos, I've had it several years, no problems with it but it's small (32") and only 720p so the picture isn't all that great.

Okay..... GO!

uhh, hadn't really thought about it... but no, I don't think I really need that... unless someone wants to sell me on why I do

Netflix, skype, facebook ect

I am going to buy a tv next week probably and I will be narrowing down my choices over the weekend. I am looking for middle of the road price with decent performance. Looking at some Panasonics and Toshiba's; Sony is just way over priced. Sharps can be a little on the pricey side but, they are good as well.

I have a corporate discount with all of them so I am going to get the best deal I can.

Going to go with one that has internet so I can do netflix on the tv without having another device hooked up.

Nah... I can play Netflix through my Wii, and I don't need Facebook on the big screen.
