Dave -- I may be way off here -- I too have heard that cold affects the TV's. In fact when you first get one (which we did) Part of the instructions & advise from the store was to let it sit for 24 hours (to let it get to room temp) before turning it on for the first time. What a bummer that was -- to stare at a 42" blank screen on the first day!!!!! And to boot there was a Football Game on ......... GGrrrrrrrr

Perhaps that only applies to first time fire up?? No clue -- I'd ask a couple of stores their opinions -- and I mean a couple, just in case you get the "trainee" on the first go around. Try Circuit City, Best Buy, etc.

Good Luck
