I heard they sometimes have a rainbow effect poblem but I have never seen one.

Brian,

Make sure you see one of these sets before you buy. I saw one recently and was not very impressed. But the set may not have been calibrated properly. I also found it extremely difficult to see any rainbow at all on these. I do see them occasionally on my LT150 DLP FP but it depends on the material. I do think I see them less and less and haven't noticed any on Discovery HD @720p with the PJ.

The LT150 blows away these Samsungs IMO.

It seems that this line already has some fans although they are less than a month old.
