I doubt you'll find one that cheap.. Im just thinking of the cost to mfg. it wouldn't be that low to the public. I think $49.99 is where its at now. Furthermore, a vcr with a "cable tuner" or "cable ready" feature will cure your Scifi/Toon jones. You will take the cable into the vcr and then out to the tv. The vcr will be needed to change channels via its remote..and will always have to be on.
