OK unless you're looking to upgrade
Pros
Inexpensive HD OTA
Cons
Poor technology - why make an HD set that can't decode regular defintion well.
Recommended it?
No
I bought this product as Sam's Club of all places. It is an excellent set for HD OTA and regular definition satellite receiver. But I recently upgraded to an HD receiver for DirecTV and found out it doesn't have the capability to keep up with the HD satellite receiver. There is a phenomena called macroblocking that occurs since the digital picture cannot be translated properly. Defined - it is an awful picture on the 480i channels, which means about 95 of my programs looked awful. Again, if you don't plan on getting HD satellite no problem. I don't know about digital satellite. Needless to say, I am returning it to Sam's after 3 mths of ownership (which I am surprised) and upgrading to the 50" Samsung DLP. Hope this helps.
