I have a 42 inch 4k@60hz Seiki I got for a couple hundred bucks last year, I'm happy with it as my sole monitor (replacing two others). It's not as good as others for gaming but good enough. At that size the pixel density is roughly the same as my smaller 1080 and 1200 monitors it replaced so it really does end up feeling like 4 screens, while having more vertical pixels than my 1900x1200 that I had on its side. I could probably live with a 720 plasma as a TV but not as a monitor I do work on...

It still makes a surprisingly decent bedroom television; for computer use, I agree -- resolution is just too low for comfort.
