I wanted an 85" TV, and unfortunately Sceptre only makes up to 75".

I ended up with a Costco 85" LG and unplugged the WiFi card before turning it on, and so far it's worked very well for me.

I wish I could have voted with my wallet on this.

Unfortunately LG has terrible sound - but a soundbar works well.

Unfortunately the LG soundbars - which integrate well with the TV - use a wifi based wireless subwoofer. the soundbar becomes a wifi access point.

There don't appear to be any wired soundbars. I guess a component speaker system + receiver is the solution, which is probably much better sound anyway.
