Pros: Aside from being huge :) this LCD TV presents a very clear picture, even when not using HDMI (though I've since purchased an HDMI cable for our Satellite Receiver.) DVD's look aweseom, Blu-Ray even better!

Cons: Two cons that brought it down to 4 eggs, first being I'm a gamer, and use my PS3 on this thing when I can, but even after adjusting picture settings, the dark parts of games are almost impossible to see, which can be a problem for some games (Act 3 of Metal Gear Solid 4.) I improved it quite a bit by adjusting contrast and brightness, but there's no way to make the dark parts as visible as they should be without the whole scene being white-washed.

The other, biggest reason for 4 eggs: as long as New Egg uses AIT for shipping large items, I will not buy a large item from them again. It took over 2 weeks to get here because of laziness on AIT's part, and they didn't deliver when we scheduled to deliver. We scheduled between 10Am and 10:30AM, and when 11:30 rolled around we called and they suddenly said "No, we said between 10:30Am and 4PM" Had to miss an hour of work just so these people didn't make us wait another week to get it. And the box was banged up quite a bit.

Other Thoughts: All in all, well worth it, especially for the sale it has going. Learned from our first LCD TV and countless LCD monitors to get the longest warranty possible up front, the extra $200+ is well worth it for when your TV fails in about two years (seems average for TV's and Monitors, with a few exceptions of course :) ) Aside from the shipping issues, I'm satisfied.

Pros: 3 day delivery with no damage, great colors, low reflections, and "REALLY BIG"!

Cons: If you don't run it in high definition the picture is blotchy.
