Win a Vizio TVI love my 48-inch Vizio LCD TV, which I bought soon after I reviewed a plasma TV from the Irvine company. I would love it even more if I had won it. Now Vizio has teamed up with another local, SRS Labs in Santa Ana, to give away three big HDTVs. The contest is to mark the new partnership between the companies.
