I was briefly looking into this for my kitchen, to mount in a place that I could see what was going on on my big screen without actually turning that way. I eventually realized that it was stupid to have two tvs in the same great room, even if one was in the "kitchen" so that I could watch and not just listen to tv while cooking or cleaning up after cooking or sitting at the kitchen table.
But, while I was looking into it, I found these things out:
coax inputs on flat-panel displays make them a lot more expensive, even if they're LCD;
coax inputs on regular monitors are extremely rare;
the only way it's cost-effective is if you get an LCD monitor, and they don't look that good.
