Toshiba 34HD82 34" Pure Flat Screen HDTV-Ready TV
If you love movies, this is a great TV for you!
I've had this TV for just over 6 months - LOVE it!  We use component cables with Progressive-scan Sony DVD player and also use the component cables with Sony PS2, both versions of video is so crisp, it hurts your eyes!  Also have HD cable box, and the HD picture is phenomenal (for the 5 channels available, so far...)  Remainder of channels come in very clear.  Was considering Sony flat-screen and Samsung 30&quot; plasma when we purchased this.  Very happy with the choice we made!<br />Great features with the TV, PIP, etc.... so many you will spend hours pouring through the manual.  Our favorite is a &quot;1/2 mute&quot; where the first time you press the mute button, it mutes 1/2-way... low enough that one can answer phone briefly but the remainder of viewers can still hear.  Also had multiple settings for the widescreen so you can choose which &quot;fit&quot; is best per movie (some widescreen DVD's are not exactly the 16:9 (or 1.78:1) aspect ratio).  For example, Star Wars II is 2.35:1, so you may have black bars to view movie in proper proportion (or, if you choose to fill the screen, you stretch/smush the video to fit)... one of the things we didn't realize until we bought the TV and started trying out all the movies....<br />And should you choose to purchase this model, have a buddy handy for moving it in, it is HEAVY!!
