There are 65" smart HDTVs out there currently that can be had for under $1000. There's a 65" vizio at the sams club down the street from me for $948 right now.

I agree the "smart" application on my Panasonic is pretty pathetic too. Probably better off just getting a chromecast for $30 and calling it a day, plus you can carry the chromecast and your netflix subscription etc. with you, if you go to your parents or friends house.

Edit: Heh, OP even wants an Xbox to go with his new TV. Getting a smart TV on top of an Xbox is completely pointless.
I already have a chromecast, but it doesn't have all the apps I would like. If it had every streaming service known to man, sure I'd be all set.
I want an Xbox but it's definitely not at the top of the list. Might not happen at all or the wife might get it for me.
Basically the one app that would sell me on a smart TV is NHL Gamecenter. If I get an xbox, this is obviously not an issue.

Bingo. It doesn't seem worth it to specifically search out a non-smart TV when the selection out there is almost non-existent. Sure, they will eventually obsolete, but right now Smart TV = TV.
