What People Say

among the pros, in addition to great picture quality, is that it is rather light for the size, and there is no need to buy an upconvert dvd to see your standard dvd's on it. from Amazon.com the picture was beautiful right out of the box, and the hd signals from my directv satellite are transformed into the clearest, sharpest images i have ever seen on a television. from Amazon.com after figuring out how to set it up with all my componants and programming the tv itself i was blown away at the clarity of the picture. from Amazon.com we received our televiaion today (7/31/08), hooked it up and started watching the best picture that either one of us has had our entire lives! from Amazon.com it is also capable of being a high resolution computer monitor through its hdmi 1.3 input (and a wireless keyboard/mouse), which i hope to test as well. from Amazon.com after having done much research and product comparisons, as well as going to stores and actually comparing the difference in picture quality between the different television set-ups. from Amazon.com but, i'm not a huge fan of it for regular television or movies (i keep it set to low for these). from Amazon.com i have yet to watch it at its peak with 1080p movies, and i cannot wait to get a bluray player. from Amazon.com currently i have a sony playstation 3, an xbox 360 halo edition, and a panasonic 1080p upscaling dvd player hooked on it via hdmi. from Amazon.com i have had many friends over to watch various movies and about half (including me) love the look it creates. from Amazon.com
