This just happened today (the TV is maybe 4.5 years old). Anybody dealt with major misconvergence like this? Any thoughts on repair costs vs. replacement costs? I poked around on eBay and my TV in working condition is worth between $500 and $800. Needless to say, my convergence is shot to hell, and I imagine repairs could cost something near the replacement cost, depending on what exactly broke. On the other hand, the Sharp Aquos I'd want to replace it with, if I had to buy something new, would cost $5000, which I don't want to spend right now.

My original goal was to get one more year of life out of this thing, then sell it since I'll be going on sabbatical for the 2007 calendar year. I don't know what the hot thing will be at the beginning of 2008, but it will be much cheaper than anything I can get now with comparable specs.

Thoughts?
