At the beginning of 2011, we're guessing that many of you planned to get a new TV this year. Well, here we are, staring at store Christmas displays. Have you upgraded yet? The wait is over and your patience is about to be rewarded!

Best Buy currently has the Samsung 40-inch UN40D5003 1080p LED HDTV listed for just $497.99. This is about $200 off the list price of this full 1080p HDTV. That price also includes free shipping, making it a very nice deal indeed. However, if you're the type of person that prefers to do some heavy lifting, this retailer does make it an option to pick up your purchase at a local Best Buy store. You can find out more about this deal and the delivery options on Best Buy's website:

Besides a big, beautiful HD image, this 40-incher also offers Clear Motion Rate 120 technology, which helps to smooth some of those fast-moving images from sporting events, action flicks, and much more, reducing the blur that you find on some lesser quality LED and LCD TV sets. It also has the HyperReal Engine and Wide Color Enhancer Plus, promising to deliver the most lifelike images possible.

Other features include a Digital Noise Filter and SRS TheaterSound. Also, Samsung's ConnectShare technology allows you to plug a USB thumb drive or other external media device into this set's USB port, so you can play back digital content -- and even control it through the included remote.

If you want to add in a Blu-ray player, cable/satellite box, or other AV device, the UN40D5003 also has two HDMI inputs.

Worried about Best Buy selling out of stock? Don't be. We also found this model on Amazon for just $2 more. Amazon does offer free Super Saver shipping, as well as free 30-day returns, and the retailer's TV Low Price Guarantee. That guarantee means that if you find this set for less (like at Best Buy, or even on Amazon's own web site) within 14 days of the ship date, Amazon will refund you the difference on the purchase price.
