Pros: Hands down the best picture out there unless you spend more than 10k.

Cons: Speakers on the side.

Pros: Power saving and not as susceptible to "jarring injuries" as a plasma.

Cons: You may have to fiddle with the color depending on what you watch.

Review: We have had our eye on this TV for a year. After much research and CNETs rating we got it on black friday 2006 for a steal! The picture quality is outstanding, without the fuzz between picture changes of the regular LCD's. It's easy to use. HD cannot ...

Pros: great picture quality

Cons: a little fuzzy around the pillar bars, remote could be improved

Pros: Picture quality, great sound, clear angle views

Cons: Yellow/green spots

The Bottom Line: Excellent TV but do get an extended warranty if you purchase it.

Review: This is an awesome TV and I really want to love it. It has a superlative HD picture and a fairly good SD picture. DVD's look great in 480p on my older Panasonic S35 scan player. We watched Lost season 1 on DVD and it looked really good. The colors ...

Pros: AMAZING PICTURE QUALITY ON HD

Cons: THE "GREEN" BLOB PROBLEM
