the 240hz setting is really just beneficial during fast moving sports, but without it movies on blu-ray look amazing.

as for performance, the 240hz appears to completely eliminate the "lcd motion blur" that makes my older samsung 60hz unacceptable for fast moving sports.
from www.amazon.com
when i have watched football or some other fast-moving stuff on other people lcd panels, all i saw was blocks and digital artifacting and that always turned me off to lcd.

so far, i have watched several hd movies, 4 football games in hd, and about a dozen shows filmed in hd.

sports events are the best -- you get a great picture and colors on sd, then when you switch over to hd, the grass is not only green but you can count the blades of grass!
