Wow,....you guys are opening old wounds!
Before we bought our 65" RPCRT Mits last year, a set by the way that is "almost" too wide, we were looking at other sets as well. My second choice was a Sony 60" RP LCD with Dumbo ears that made it wider over-all than the Mits!
The wife liked the 70" sony(she contends that MY eyes are failing and we need a larger set, I think "She" just likes the bragging rights)but it used an older style chassis and was of course even wider yet.
IF Sony would have had a 60"(or prefferably a 65")without the "ears" they very likely would have gotten another sale!
