Im also thinking of getting either the 42st30 or samsung 43e450/490. Pros ng samsung, cheaper, extra 1 inch, may mga freebies like ht, dongle, 2 yrs samsung warranty. Sa st30 naman, better blacks, less reflective, motionflow, full hd. But it only has 1 year in house warranty. More expensive esp with the glasses, no freebies.
