i am looking to buy a rear projection display in the 70" range. i figured since i would be buying at the end of summer at the earliest, i would go for hdmi 1.3 as i would also be picking up a new receiver and dvd player, all which are expected to have 1.3 models out this summer-winter. so, which manufacturer's sets have or will have hdmi 1.3 in time for my purchase?

(budget: under 10k, but preferably closer to 5k, unless a noticable difference to an above average watcher)

thanks
