bought 47 inch panasonic from One Call. Had the best price. Everything went smoothly. TV still works :)

I'm considering getting VOOM by the end of this weekend. Can't go wrong. No upfront fees, just pay for the service packages and renting the equipment. No contracts. Well, here is a very good forum for VOOM related stuff. http://www.satelliteguys.us/forumdisplay.php?forumid=24 and here...

not to mention that the Phantom also was placed number 3 on WIRED vaporware list. http://wired.com/news/technology/0,1...ory_page_next2

I had a Panasonice CRT model CT-27sf something or other, that blew out on me after a few years (3 years). Brought in to the local TV repair person and had it fixed for 160 bucks. Was told it was the power regulator inside the TV. Also mentioned that it was due to the fact that Panasonic was...

Hey Eric, I believe the T3 1080p can only be played via Windows Media Player 9. It's not the one thats being played by your DVD player. I beleive there is a thread about that in the Software section. Also I don't think 1080i (HD) DVD's will be here any time soon. Can't fit that much...

Well I just got done comparing this player with a Denon DVD 1600. I have a Panasonic 47WX53 and I must say that the Sammy holds up to the Denon. Mind you I'm not the most scientific/technical person in reviewing things, but I really couldn't tell much of a picture difference between the two. I...

So, when I picked up my new HDTV (Panasonic 47wx53), I jumped on the Samsung HD 931 because of the DVI upscaling. Well I must say that I'm not extremely impressed with the DVI upscaling, maybe I was expecting too much? Now I want to compare this player with another progressive player, since I...

sweet. :) Thanks. -Han

Well, I'm currently using a Radio Shack AV system selector (passive) to route my xbox and ps2 via components into a Panasonic 47wx53. I was looking into getting something with more inputs and something more robust, and I happened to come across this Pelican gizmo...

Kind of off topic, but I have sort of the same issue with the THX intro logo on DVD's. When the THX intro logo with the blue border and "writing" appear, the right border is clipped off, but the words aren't. It seems that Dave is getting both sides clipped? Mine seems to be just the right side...

I see. Well I have the Panny 47wx53 which accepts DVI. I think I like the fact that the Bravo plays mp3 CD's and mpeg-4 video. But the factor that really influences me in purchasing this is the pricepoint ($200) and the picutre quality. I might have to go see it for myself. Might just do that...

How is this player performing now guys? Any further reviews or comments on it? -Han

So any more reviews or thoughts on this machine? I'm about to buy a DVI DVD player soon. Trying to see if the Bravo is better than the Samsung. -Han

Just as a side note. An article in the San Jose Mercury News stated that DVD rentals beat out VHS rentals for the first time last week. http://www.bayarea.com/mld/mercurynews/6126861.htm -Han

hmmm....E/M focus?

Thanks guys. My old player is a Panasonic DV-333. Yes I also read about the samsung and bravo. I think I'll wait a bit and let the TV handle the de-interlacing for now. I would like to fully utilize the DVI connection. Thanks again. Can't wait to see the new TV. Another question. When I...

Well, I did a little more reading. And de-interlacing came up. Should I be looking for good de-interlacing capabilities as well? What exactly is it? Can I have a good PQ and good de-interlacing in a DVD player? Basically, can I get the cake and eat too? :) Or do I have to pick my poison...

Well I just took the plunge into the HD world. I just ordered a Panasonic PT-47wx53 HDTV (should be here next week). So now I need to match it with a DVD player. I need your help! I'm looking to get a progressive-scan player for around 200-250 dollars. I was looking at the Panny RP91 and I saw...

Just the other day I was playing Halo with Rico Lopez. The guy who took second place in the tournament. I was over at his brothers house and he came by to hang out. I must say that I am decent at Halo, but when I was playing with Rico, it was just ridiculous how fast he could kill you with a...

I personally am not looking to pass HD signals through my switch box. I only wish to see a marked improvement over the composite cables that I am using right now. Maybe later on when I do get an HDTV I'll look into a more suitable solution. But I only wish to get a "better picture" than what...

Blah...kinda worried of doing the RCA method to switch the components now after reading what Luke had to say. But at least the $30 investment in the switch isn't too much, and hopefully I can return it if it doesn't work satisfactorily. Damn finals. Keeping me from enjoying my new toys. I'll...

I think I'm going to go with the Radio Shack composite switcher. Very Cheap, since I'm blowing almost 2 grand on all this new hardware and peripherals on these games systems. I need the 4 set of inputs that the Radio Shack switch offers. Don't think the JVC one will be sufficient enough for...

Thanks Scott.

Well, I got greedy and just bought my self a PS2 and an Xbox within the last week, and I am planning on buying the Gamecube whenever the local store gets it in stock. But my problem is that I have too many component inputs for my TV, which only has one set. I am already using my component...
