HDTVs Are The Hottest Consumer Electronics Item Right Now, And Heres Your Chance To Cash In.
Looking for reliable, unbiased advice on which HDTV is best? Avoid an expensive mistake...
"The wrong set could waste $1,800 or more! Take the easy route to find the best HDTV. Make the smart choice the first time. Get the right size at the right price."
From: Alfred Poor
Independent HDTV Expert

A hungry man was walking along the river bank when he came across a fisherman, who had buckets filled to the brim with fish. The hungry man asked the fisherman for one of the fish, because he had no money and had not eaten in a long time. The fisherman said, ? won? give you any fish, but I?l give you my extra fishing pole and I?l show you how to catch your own fish.?/font>
It? a familiar fable, but it still holds some important lessons. Many people come to this Web site looking for someone to just tell them which HDTV is the best. Like the fisherman, I? not going to tell you which is the best HDTV model, and for good reasons. There are lots of good fish in the river of HDTVs, but I? need to know a lot about your needs, preferences, and budget in order to make a responsible recommendation. I? also have to know all the details of all the HDTVs on the market, and I would have to know how they perform relative to each other. The fact is that nobody knows all that information.
Until recently, I wrote the reviews that millions of readers relied on to make buying decisions. Over the past 20 years, I wrote more than a thousand product reviews for PC Magazine, Computer Shopper, CNET, and other magazines and Web sites. I was the PC Magazine's Lead Analyst for Business Displays, and I developed the test protocols for projectors and computer monitors. I know how difficult it is to create and execute tests that are reliable, repeatable, and meaningful.
So if you?e looking for an easy answer, you?l have to find someone else to spend your money for you because I won? do it. What I will do is give you the fishing pole and knowledge how to use it, so that you?l be assured of getting the very best HDTV for your needs, preferences, and budget. You don? need to know complex technical information, and my advice probably will cut the amount of time you spend shopping for an HDTV in half. And best of all, you may find that the right model for you costs $1,800 less than something that someone else might tell you to buy.
If you want to avoid a costly mistake, I have the information you need.
Dear Prof. Poor,
Yesterday, I visited a store to check-out some HDTVs. The salesman tried to hoodwink me into making a quick purchase which could have proved costly and frustrating. Fortunately, I had a few fundamentals up my sleeve obtained from your book which I purchased the other day. It surprised the salesman and prevented me from placing a round peg in a square hole!
Your unique book is authoritative and well written. It lives up to its claims as it contains invaluable information to guide the lay prospective buyer of HDTVs. I must study the details before making a wise choice. Congratulations on your excellent book and many thanks.

The Top Reason People Return
Their New HDTVs!
The top reason that people return their new HDTVs is that it's the wrong size! Imagine bringing home your new HDTV only to learn that it doesn't fit your room or the resolution isn't right for the viewing distance.
My book will show you an easy way to determine the right size and resolution HDTV for any room in your house. I did all the hard work for you ¡ª the research and the calculations and the analysis ¡ª so all you have to do is take one measurement and multiply by one number. You won't find this information anywhere else!
Does size really matter? Using my information, one person avoided spending more than $1,000 too much for the wrong display. This person actually is a real estate developer who had more than 50 rooms, so his savings were more than $50,000!
Dear Dr. Poor,
As soon as our real estate team found out about your e-book, Professor Poor's Guide to Buying HDTV, we downloaded and put it to use right away. Wow, you sure know your stuff!
We're currently working with a client who is converting apartments to condos, and he plans to improve them with luxury features before selling them, including adding a flat screen display in every bedroom.
I read your detailed instructions on choosing the right size television display size just before meeting with our client. I was able to show him that he was planning to buy the wrong display for the room size, and helped him save more than $1,000 per unit. With more than 50 units in the building, your book helped me save him more than $50,000. So the information on screen size and type alone is worth more than 1,000 times the price of your book. Our client was suitably impressed by our knowledge of this technology, so our hats are off to you.
Best Regards,

A Secret They Won't Tell You
in the Stores.
Now, I want to let you in on a secret they won't tell you in the stores. The other one of the top two reasons that people return their HDTVs is because the picture on the new set doesn't look as good as their old TV!
Imagine how disappointing that would be! Yet it happens to thousands of people every year, and the numbers are growing. You can avoid this mistake, simply by understanding HDTV so that you choose the right display for your needs and budget.
You need practical information about HDTV, explained in terms that you can understand, from an expert you can trust.
I know that many people are confused by all the jargon and technology. Should you buy a model that is "HDTV Bulit-In" or an "HDTV Monitor'"? I know that many people aren't even sure about what "HDTV" means! But it's easy to compare the latest HDTVs yourself, and pick the one that delivers the best bang for your buck! It's easy, once I show what to look for, and why.
After reading your material, I have become our company's resident expert on HDTV. Your book in general and chapter material on LCoS specifically steered me toward LCoS and I'm glad I went in that direction.
Thanks for a great product that made me a much better informed consumer.

Spend 5 Minutes and Get the Right HDTV!
I'm not going to try to tell you what brand and model to buy, unlike the sales staff in an electronics store. Even though I know lots about TV technology, you shouldn't let me, or some electronics salesperson, tell you how to spend hundreds or thousands of dollars of your hard-earned money. Instead, I'll teach you how easy it is to evaluate HDTVs for yourself. You'll know just what to look for when you spend 5 minutes looking at an HDTV set in the store, so you can make an informed, confident purchase decision that you'll be happy with for many years to come.
Here are just some of the topics covered:
Understand how HDTV and Digital TV are different.
Find out what will happen when analog TV broadcasts stop.
Evaluate an HDTV set for yourself like an expert.
Learn which display technologies offer the biggest bang for the buck.
Learn the pros and cons for all major display technologies.
Learn where the "sweet spots" are for pricing and size.
Learn how to "future-proof" your purchase against early obsolescence.
Learn what new technology developments are on the way that could affect your purchase decision.
Understand display specifications, such as "resolution".
Find out why you should totally ignore contrast specifications when comparing HDTVs.
Learn how you can save thousands of dollars with your choice of HDTVs.
Find out how to avoid wasting money by getting a screen that is too big
Perhaps the most important message I got from reading your material is the importance of getting a processor that does a good job scaling and displaying SD signals. I would have missed that point.

Act Now & Receive the Following Bonuses Absolutely Free!
BONUS #1
Professor Poor's "What This Ad Means"
Like many other people who are shopping for an HDTV, you may be bewildered by all the specifications, features, and claims you see in the ads and hear from sales staff in the stores. My book will make the terms and technologies clear, but I'm going to give you something else that will help.
Wouldn't you love to have a knowledgeable friend reading over your shoulder as you look at the latest ads for HDTVs? Someone who is an independent expert on the subject, and who can explain which items are important, and which ones are just a smoke screen.
That's exactly what I've done. I have taken a number of real advertisements, and created a report that takes them apart, point by point, detail by detail. I tell you what's important, what's irrelevant, and what is just plain misleading.
I expect that many people would find it to be a bargain at even $19.95, because it makes them more knowledgeable consumers, and better prepared to understand the sales pitches they encounter.
But Professor Poor's "What This Ad Means" is not available for sale at any price. The only way you can get it is to buy Professor Poor's Guide to Buying HDTV today!
BONUS #2
Professor Poor's Weekly Price Intelligence Report
Prices change rapidly in the HDTV market - both up and down - and you can spend a lot of time trying to keep up on the latest deals. My network of "intelligence agents" gathers information about the weekly sales offered by the major retailers across the country. And then I compile all this information into an electronic report that I publish EVERY TUESDAY.
Instead of driving all around town to comparison shop, you can look at this report to find out where the deals are. It lists the size, brand, technology, and price for each advertised model. It also indicates HD Ready or Fully HD for each model, as well as any special deal such as a bundled DVD player.
This report can save you hours of driving and shopping, and can also save you several hundred dollars or more just by bird-dogging the best buys for you.
Professor Poor's Weekly Price Intelligence Report is a bargain at $9.95, but if you buy Professor Poor's Guide to Buying HDTV today, you get the current issue of the Price Intelligence Report for free! It's like putting money in your pocket! But that's not enough for me; I want this to be an irresistibly great bargain. So I want to give you even more.
