I've been waiting my whole life for this baby! I love it. It's a clean, elegant design which will now become a centerpiece to my livingroom. And I don't even watch TV!
Well Worth The Money - But is it worth the wait for Delivery? July 17, 2008

I am familiar with this TV as I just set one up at a friend's house. Great picture, great quailty overall, and a very nice look.
Multiple inputs making it easy to connect all your gear - a real "Run whatya brung" TV as it has 3 HDMI inputs Multiple PC and Component Inputs and it even supports the old S-Video and RCA connections.
The menus are very basic and it lacks some of the advanced tuning that I am used to on my Sony 60 inch, but the picture quality is excellent and most users will find the menu of options more than sufficient. As someone else said everything is menu driven from the remote, with very few one touch functions.
I purchased this on the Amamzon 36 month Interest Free Deal. Cant beat 33 bucks a month.
Now the BAD - its delivering by CEVA who has no idea where my TV is? The last tracking scan was Newark NJ on Sunday - 22 miles away from my house... well today is Thursday - Hello? Anyone out there? I thought they would call me by now and when I call them - they thought it was picked up already? Picked up? Huh?
Great Price, Great TV but Amazon needs to find a better Delivery service CEVA is horrible. If I had read the message boards about CEVA formelery EAGLE freight I would have never purchased this TV at Amazon. I hope I finally get my TV.
Very pleased. July 15, 2008

This TV was a big upgrade for us. We've never had a flat screen/hi-def TV before. I was rather overwhelmed by all the options out there, and I am by no means an expert on such things. I chose this one based on good reviews and what seemed like a reasonable price. I couldn't be more pleased. This TV looks great, sounds great, and is easy to use.
Why'd I wait? June 29, 2008

Bought this at WalMart for two reasons, picture quality and inputs. Picture quality was outstanding considering it side-by-side with everything else they had at the store. That wasn't enough for me. I wanted connectivity options. This "TV" has 3 HDMI inputs (not 2 as the description says). One of the HDMI inputs is on the side of the TV so you can plug in anything you want, any time. It also has 2 VGA ports - one on the side. If that's not enough, there are two HD component inputs and optical and RCA audio outputs. But wait, there's an S-Video input too. Did I mention it also has an HD15 video monitor (from your PC) input? How about a 3.5mm audio input? WOWIE! Oops, it's got a coax input as well so you can use it as a regular old TV.
Pitcure's great, blah, blah, blah... but did I mention the connectors? This TV doubles as an admirable PC monitor at full 1080P (assuming your video card supports it). Was able to play FPS games at full resolution. Wow again.
Cons: Well, there are some. The first one is the minimalist remote control. Everything is menu driven, it seems, and it wasn't intuitive for me. I'd like more of it to be in shorter menus you can access from the remote. How about a universal remote? I have a Sony DVPCX995V 400-Disc DVD Mega Changer/Player that does HDMI 1080i upconverting (outstaning btw), a Sony home theater sound system as well. I have to have THREE different remotes for three Sony products. Arg. Then I have a satelite controller too.
The other beef I have is the highly limited PIP. It's got that many inputs, but you can only use one at a time. The only PIP functionality is when you're in PC mode with the HD15 input. Of course, if you're using the HDMI for PC input it's gone. This function is highly limited being a small box you can't change positions of. It's also poorly described in the instructions.
 Seems like a fine TV at a decent price June 19, 2008

This is our first "big flat screen monster" and, while we are "Sony People" we were put off by their prices until these new models came out. The picture looks great, 1080 in particular of course. I have not noticed any of the not-quite-black issues others have talked about. The contrast is fine for me. I like the "piano black" much better than Sony's fancy glass models, and it costs less as well. If there is one and only one issue with the whole thing it is that the documentation seems skimpy; it's all about connecting the cables and not much technical detail about the TV. I already know how to hook it up... But if you're looking at a 40 inch this is a nice one.
