Its only a week away, and lot of stores have started advertising their deals. In my 10 years in US, I have only once camped out in front of Best Buy and still couldnt get the laptop I was planning to buy. So what your plans and past experiences?
Black Friday: Prepare for the Fight (http://shopping.yahoo.com/articles/yshoppingarticles/293/black-friday-prepare-for-the-fight/)
By Mike Krumboltz, Y! Buzz
Attention, class. Here's a logic question for you: If it's true that everyone loves a deal, and Black Friday offers the best deals of the year, then is it safe to assume that folks will go into a state of high-grade hysteria the day after Thanksgiving? The answer is: duh, of course.
Though over a week away, Black Friday is already igniting the Search box. Shoppers have pushed up searches on "black friday 2009" and "black friday ads" to dizzying heights. One might think that retailers would keep the deals a secret until the big day, but nothing could be further from the truth.
In an effort to get spend-happy shoppers to their stores, retailers have "leaked" many of their most drool-worthy deals. Offers from Walmart, Best Buy, and Target are all garnering a ton of lookups. And, interestingly, many of the deals are quite similar.
CNN Money explains what shoppers can expect find at Walmart on November 27. According to sources, there will be HDTVs, laptops, toys, and Blu-ray players for the grabbing. Confirmed products include a 50-inch Sanyo 720p plasma TV for $598, a Magnavox Blu-ray player for $78, and a GPS from TomTom for $59.
And across the urban sprawl at Target? A lot of the same, actually. There, you can get a 32-inch LCD HDTV from Westinghouse for $246, some toys for 50 percent off, and toasters and coffeemakers for just $3. Best Buy will reportedly offer shoppers a 50-inch Samsung plasma TV for $898, "huge discounts" on GPS units, and a PlayStation 3 Slim with two games for $300.
It's worth noting that none of these deals are "official," as the stores have yet to confirm them. But odds are, they're the real deal. Set your alarms and sharpen your claws — it's gonna be a long day.

kharab to nahi hai lekin acchi bhi nahi hai... kal subah do teen wicket jaldi gire to haar bhi sakte hain. Murali will be waiting to pounce on any 5th day cracks and bowlers' marks.

So then what is 1080p? I thought it was 46 inches. Is 1080p the weight? 1080 pounds? I would imagine a 46" tv would weigh quite a lot bu not a thousand pounds!!

ooh you are in playing mood ..okay :smartass:
no no p in 1080p is not for pounds for pounds its lbs
p is for progressive scans so 1080p is full HD producing 1920×1080, or total 2,073,600 pixels ( in a 16:9 ratio aspect widescreen ).:up:

Halo 3 over in normal mode long time back. Working on hard mode:D. Multiplayer mode online is cool, can play campaign with friends online :)
Haven't played any new games, but want to get Soul Caliber.
Modern Combat available for XBOX 360? Is it something like call of duty?
