Extremely Cheap HD-TV

I'm looking for a cheap as hell HD-TV that I can use to play games on. It can be a CRT but I would prefer widescreen, and I was wondering if anyone knew of any cheap ass ones? ($350?).
If this is an insane request, too bad, does it!

i didn't know they made HD-CRTs... is that true?
I doubt you'll get an HD for under $500
Wal-Mart sells a CRT HDTV here for $450 [probably cheaper in the Lower 48].. Check their website.

I see 15"'s for around $300 but they're not widescreen...
Thanks for the effort.

I found a 27" for around $400 and its HD, but its not wide screen.
Btw, the Xbox VGA HD Cable already comes with the premium package -)
Btw, those ones mr_black posted arent tvs, are they?
Does it matter if its a tv? will it still work?
And does the HDAV Cable work with tvs? It says its for pc moitors. Im confused -(

Why don't you do a DIY site and get a nice big one. You'll pay less than $300.

For a cheap hdtv check out ecost.com . They had a 32 inch lcd HDTV for $599. They have a lot of good deals and probably have something slightly smaller in your price range. Hope that helps.
