I'm getting to that point as well..

In fact I do not have ANY TV right now and was kind of
shopping for a new flatscreen model

BUT.... I am thinking it might be best to buy a bigger
PC monitor for my desktop instead and watch THAT! That
is.... move desktop and big monitor in the living
room...

What you say?

Get a proper TV with web capabilities. I have a $150 Insignia Bluray
player that streams Netflix. There are standalone streamer boxes for as
low as $60. Build a Linux media server for next to nothing. (They even
have remote controls). My 50" DLP also has 7 inputs, 4 of which are
hi-def.
