also - why doesnt my TV have a contrast control?

Oh man, do I love having a 53 incher in my living room. I might have overpaid but that extra money was the last thing on my mind when I sat in front of that thing to watch Band Of Brothers tonight. Ok so here are my new owner questions (again it is a panny 53wx42): 1. are those jacked up...

yeah, actually now that i work this out in my head - the deal wasnt that great at all :b worse than I originally even thought it was. If I had bought it as is when I walked in the door I would have paid 1939 and recieved a 50 dollar cheap dvd player. As opposed to Onecall's 1598 (with...

Thanks everyone - just got back. CC was the store I hit up first because it was closest. The set was selling for 1799 with a free DVD player (cheap-o 50 dollar value) - I explained the situation and they pretty much right off of the bat said they couldnt match that price. I said ok and...

Well after months and months I have finally decided on the Panny 53wx42 for a variety of reasons. Now I have to decide who to buy from. History: I actually initially placed an order from Onecall on friday night - but have had such a hard time getting the order to complete (through...

Well, Bruce You've won me over - I am yet to hear or read of an argument that is as compelling FOR DVI as I have against it. This was exactly why I was asking for the "practical" uses of DVI... because quite honestly no-one could gve them to me. Everyone always talks in terms of future...

Thats a pretty good article. But what I have had a hard time tracking down is the following: 1. what, if any, practical purpose this DVI interface will have on a TV RIGHT NOW. 2. what, if any, future purpose will this interface serve besides acting as a copyright enforcer and reciever...

proving that there is most likely no ryhme or reason to it at all

Unfortunately even the best manufacturers occasionally produce a clunker and the best products can go bad. It has always interested me how a bad experience with a product can really sour someone to it - being in the technology field I constantly see it with people's outlloks and views about home...

Oh man... so dig this! I finally decide to pull the trigger and purchase the tosh 50h82. Any doubts I had were finally put to rest when I was able to see the set side by side with some of the other models I was considering (like the panny and a sony). So I get down to Best Buy and begin to...

I just talked to someone from OneCall and he confirmed that the older models do have a lower picture quality and line doubler. I am still completely in the dark about what practical purpose, or use, DVI has - or will have, outside of some potential future copyright stuff and some pay per view...

can anyone confirm or comment on this? If there is a noticeable differnce in picture quality between the two models I will certainly stay with the more expensive *.82 - but if the only difference is the 'future' DVI capability then I have a hard time justifying the extra bones. (unless of...

LOL I bet you all hear that a bunch! I'm looking to drop about 2k on a box (8ft sitting distance, 30%dvd, 70%cable and sports) and I can not even begin to tell you how helpful this forum has been in helping me narrow down my search (and in eductaing me on features and terminology.) After...
