I understand exactly what you're saying, and in principle, it's a good idea, but leasing has always been all or none... either it's a great solution for you, or it's the worst thing you could have come up with to do with your money.. so that's definitely a "beware" situation.

I have to say I'm guilty of waiting too (I think we all are) b/c I've had the money I don't know how many times to get that low-consumption larger-screen LCD TV and replace my C.R.(ap)T. TV, but I keep waiting for a sale, or the price to go even lower.. and its still relatively new technology, and now everything is HD, which is keeping the price higher than it could be, etc...

Same w/ a Wii... wife wants one to beat all... but I can't justify spending $250 on it when I know it will be cheaper in a year... same w/ the only game she wants for it... WiiFit. It's like $150...
