Got the 20” RCA Xbox TruFlat TV for a measly $248.00, and man what a steel. This baby supports s-video, component video and vport which is an exclusive one plug component cable only for xbox which is sold separately for 29.00. You don’t need the vport cable as you can use the other component hookup. The picture is like night and day with the monster component cables and the colors are out of this world. Hook ups are by the abundance, you have two components which one is vport, one s-video, two composite, and you have the xbox logo on the front which ms has a 2 year exclusive with rca. All in all for 248.00 was a steel and I highly recommend it, get the truflat. :cool:

The TV sounds cool. I just picked up a 42" 16x9 TV but that was more movies etc. I need a game TV. Thanks for the impressions.

I saw that TV at my Best Buy not too long ago. I was suprised it was a good price. I already have six TV's in my bedroom. There would not be a problem buying another one.;)

yes i saw the 36" but 20" is more than enough for gaming. whats cool about this tv is that i'll have xbox and game cube with their own component hook up. for those who don't know the difference, component is the best signal available over s-vidieo and composite.

Truflat is just what it says, it's a flat panel tv opposed to concave.

RCA makes two truflat tv's one that is xbox ready, with the vport connection for the xbox. and one without vport and the xbox logo. so if you have a vport in the back of the tv and it says xbox ready on the front these are the differences.
