One consumer who posted a review on Amazon writes - "After
a lot of researching on the web and in some publications,
I decided to buy this high definition television (but not
from Amazon). First, let me say that it has terrific picture
quality-very clear and sharp. The speakers are also very
good compared to other televisions that come with speakers.
More and more HDTV manufacturers are including a high definition
tuner with their sets. It is useless to have one. All you
need is one that is HD-ready. Think about it, if you want
to use all of the features that are provided by your cable/satellite
company, then you NEED to have their HD recievers anyway.
Plus, you will save a ton of money with an HDTV that does
not include the HD tuner.
Also, Toshiba has been rated by Consumer Reports has having
the lowest instances of repair for their tv's when compared
to other brands. Please keep in mind that this was for conventional
tv's. Plasma tv's are too new to have an accurate and comprehensive
repair history. But that is still worth considering. I am
hoping-and all you can do is hope at this point-that the
company will bring the same reliability standards into their
plasma line as well."
Another consumer writes - "I recently purchased this TV
from Amazon.com and the service and delivery were outstanding.
The TV was received in perfect condition and was setup by
the delivery personal. I found the setup and use of the TV
and remote easy to use and the picture quality outstanding,
for HDTV and fair to good (depending on TV station) for normal
broadcast. I like the stretch option which proportionally
stretches the picture to minimize distortion. Stretching
does cause some loss in picture quality but it's still an
excellent picture. I would highly recomment this Plasma TV
as a good value with an outstanding picture quality and abundant
connections."
