A litte disapointed.
My 5 year old 65 inch Toshiba Rear Projection TV worked so well, I decided to stick with Toshiba to get a flat Panel TV.

Terrible picture quality
I bought this TV based on the previous model's high ranking by consumer reports. I am extremely displeased with the quality of the picture. Any dark portions of the screen show color contours and banding that drive me crazy. Where a normal TV will show a gradient of a sunset for example from light to dark of continuous shades of orange. This TV shows a series of bands of successively darker colors red, reddish orange, orangey red, etc. Mostly occurs during dark scenes. The other big problem I have, also in dark scenes is dancing pixels. An almost black area of the screen will show, rather than a dark gray image, will show pixels changing from dark gray to light gray, swimming and dancing. Try pausing the display during a dark scene and watch the supposed static scene display an annoying pixel dance. The HD quality is okay during lighter colored scenes. The regular signal picture quality is poor also. Additionally the channels take three seconds to change and up to ten seconds if it has not been saved during channel scan. The tuner locks up and requires the TV to be turned off before it will allow a change of channel again. Do not buy this TV.

Great TV for the price
I got a wonderful deal (i.e. <2k) for this TV at Amazon. Having been enamored by the high definition images on plasma TVs at local stores, and being a huge sports fan, I decided to bite the bullet and get an HDTV for myself.
