My Experience: My first LCD TV, replacing an 11 yr. old 27" RCA CRT (RIP). If this one works as reliably and lasts as long, I will be happy. I really like the choices for picture and sound presets. They allow me to adjust the picture quickly to allow for content, room lighting and my eyes. I used an amplified signal splitter for my outdoor antenna to take advantage of the dual hook-ups and I can get all the local digital channels as well as the analog channels from the one antenna feed. I also like the variety of connections available, with the side composite connection useful for hooking up the game system and other temporary devices. DVDs played through the component hook-up are sharp, clean and clear, as are the DTV channel signals. I will be trying the computer hook-up in the near future.

After 1 month of ownership I give this TV an overall excellent rating for performance, picture quality, features and value. Based on my past experience with the brand, I look forward to a long and happy relationship.

Problems: At first I was getting random shutdowns which I attributed to power fluctuations, as mentioned in the manual, so I plugged the TV into a constant feed battery backup power supply. The problem was still there. It went away when I moved the TV out from where I had pushed it tight against the wall (on it's stand). There is now about one foot clearance in back and so far so good after about 2 weeks back on the wall socket. I have had only minor complaints with the remote, like having to press multiple times to get a response, but I usually use my universal RCA remote anyway.
