Toshiba 27AF42 27" Pure Flat Screen TV
Vrey good but with several flaws.
I got one of these TVs 3 days ago.  It ia very good in most ways, but there are several flaws that keep it from getting 5 stars.  I compared it side by side to the Sony flatscreen Trinitron. First, the picture is very good.  It is pretty similar to the much higher priced Sony.  The sound is a little diffent from the Sony, the Sony probably has a little better sound, but the Toshiba's sound is good enough.  <br />Now for the downsides: (1) For each channel you want to add to the favorites, you have to press 10 to 12 buttons, in the right order (2) it lacks automatic volume leveler (so some channels and commercials blast your ears) (3) the front input has A/V RCA jacks only - so S-video (or component) input up front (it has two in the back).  (4) it has no &quot;commercial skip&quot;.  My old set has a feature that you can set a time up to 4 minutes (in 30 second intervals), surf other channels, and it will return to the original channel when the time is up.  I REALLY miss that. (5) you can label only 32 channels.  (6) it doesn't have a clock, but that isn't very important to me, (7) it takes a very long time to change channels using the channel up and down, really inteferes with channel surfing.
