 - Fabulous!!Just purchased this for $1549.99, the day after it shipped it went to $1499.99. I was concerned I wouldn't get the difference back since I purchased after 9/1/08. However, I sent an email anyways. Luckily, since it shipped the day before the price change, Amazon made a one-time exception on my behalf and gave me the difference back. Love Amazon!! TV: Fabulous right out of the box! SD look remarkably good. HD is breath taking!! So far so good. Now I'm debating on a professional calibration for $300 or just do it myself with digital video essentials. We shall see. I would recommend having this hooked up to a home theater system since the sounds is only marginal. Shipping through CEVA/Eagle: I was very impressed. Amazon estimated two weeks but it shipped on Monday and I had it hooked up by Thursday. Ceva guys called me and delivered it the same day. They carried it downstairs and made sure it turned on and that everything was working properly. Thanks CEVA. I was very impressed with the whole package. I was thinking of buying a more expensive LCD (LN52A650) but decided with the plasma for $600 cheaper. Can't say that I'm disappointed at all..... Rating:  - Samsung Plasma TVThe television is very nice, the picture is beautiful and it's very user friendly. I have surround sound theater so the sound from the TV is not an issue. For the price I think it was a very good deal. I would recommend it. Rating: - Great TVGreat TV... Not too heavy. Great menus. Great color. Great remote. Plenty of inputes (3 HDMI). Can play music and pictures from the USB port. We're using it in a living room with floor to ceiling windows and doors. The picture is clear day or night. If you're using a cable/satellite box you're all set. But if you're not and you just want to watch unscrambled channels (even 720 and 1080), there are some limitations. * PIP is practically worthless. No button on the remote to activate it. You will have to go through several menus in the setup to turn it on/off. You're also limited to one analog and one non-analog. There is only one tuner. When the switch to digital is made next year, the PIP feature will be worthless. * The built in TV guide does not work well. It shows resolution and parental rating. It says that it can't find the show title or description. I have 4 year old Sony rear projection LCD (KDF-42WE655) that does PIP much better and has a TV guide that works. The Sony even shows time remaining when available. * No channel labels for digital channels. The channel label feature will become worthless next year when we switch to digital. This TV does not allow you to set channel labels for digital channels. Without a cable box and a working channel guide, its hard to remember what channel is 86.202 or 87.114. Again my 4 year old TV excels here. It doesn't discriminate between Analog and Digital for setting labels. Rating: - Pristine pictureWe have had our 50" Samsung Plasma for one month. We love it. It provides the best picture we have ever had. And now since almost every local channel is broadcasting with a digital signal, the local channels from our antenna are just as good as satellite. There is really nothing that I don't like about this TV. I highly recommend it. Rating: - Great PlasmaGreat Picture with nice looking frame.. It is our first plasma after having HD rear projection Toshiba. Would recomend this TV as a great alternative to the higher priced Panasonics and Pioner models... Did a lot of shopping and comparing and this TV for the money came out on top. Bought through Amazon, quick delivery. TV was brought into the house, unboxed and set into place.. Thanks Amazon
