Thanks all for clarifying the issue. Yes, I am using a progressive scan DVD player. In setup mode I tried turning the progessive feature off, changed aspect ratios, you name it, but the narrow picture didn't change. Zooming in...

I hope this is the right place to post. I recently bought a Panny 47" 16x9 TV, and so far all of the widescreen DVDs have been enhanced. The other night however, I watched The Hunt for Red October which the box said was "widescreen",...

I struggled with the Panny 53" vs. 47" issue too, and ultimately went with the 47" due mainly to budget (wife said keep it under $1500 or else). With the TV in the corner of my oblong gameroom I had a viewing distance of about 10',...

I put my Best Buy 10% off coupon to good use this weekend and bought the Panny 47WX42. $1557 delivered with bonus chair/ottoman. It gets delivered Saturday, I can't wait! I really wanted the 52 model with integrated screen shield, but...

James, the price at Fry's for for a brand new item, in fact all the Sony's were on sale. They listed as a "Managers Special" and they were selling a ton of them. BTW, I called my local Circuit City today and the 51WS500 is only...

I was researching some RPTV's this weekend (planned to purchase in next 6 months) and my local Fry's is selling the Sony 51WS500 for $1699. Best Buy wants $2088 for the same set! I hadn't even considered the Sony because of the...
