First of all, you won't find a much better TV for the price that has the features this TV has. Out of the box it looked great. I had previously owned a 62" Toshiba DLP and a 60" Sony LCD TV, both of which I returned because I was not satisfied. Despite what others may say, this TV does better than the two TV's I just listed in relation to how regular TV looks. At 65" it does a great job of taking standard television and making it look good. The Toshiba did an okay job, which I attribute to the DLP chip and the Sony LCD was just plain horrible. Compared to the other two, this TV also is superior when it comes to the PIP and video functions. The Sony didn't even come with PIP and the Toshiba would frame the pictures with black bars which made the pictures smaller. This TV uses all of the available space for both pictures and you have options to reformat each picture so that one is larger than the other. Switching between pictures is a breeze.Now to the reason I only gave it four stars... Out of the box the fan seemed to buzz a little more than the other two TV's I owned. I wouldn't say it's loud, but the buzz can certainly be heard when the volume is low. I looked all over the internet to see if anyone else had experienced the same problem, but coulnd't find any reviews that mention this. It may just be an issue with this particular TV. But then again, I am a picky person and find flaws in many things that some would think are acceptable.Another problem is also not significant, but it is worth mentioning. I found that if you mute the TV, then turn it off while muted and turn it back on later, the TV will still be muted even though the volume level may be turned up. The first time this happened, I thought it was strange that it stayed muted when I turned it back on. I then tried to turn the volume up and no sound came out. The volume level would increase but you couldn't hear anything. I tried changing the channel, changing the input, checked the cables, and even turned it off and back on but still no sound. I then hit the mute button and finally the sound came back on. This is definately a glitch that some may never notice, but I hope it saves some the frustration I experienced. It does not do the same thing if you hit mute, then try to turn the volume up. It only happens if you mute, turn your TV off and back on, then try to turn the volume up. You must press mute to get the volume back.Aside from the two pretty insignificant issues, it's a great TV. My brother also just bought the 62" Samsung DLP, which is a great TV as well. After owning and viewing these other brands, I definately think Mitsubishi and Samsung are the best by far. Stay away from Sony and Toshiba. The only reason I took the Mitsubishi over the Samsung was because it was 3" in larger.12/13/06:I have had this TV now for about 6 months and thought I would provide an update... The "glitches" I mentioned above are really not glitches after all. Regarding the mute issue, that is actually listed as a function in the owners manual. I haven't had any trouble with it since. As for the fan, yes it seems a little loud when you first get it, but surprisingly it gets quieter the more you use it. There must be a burn in period with the fan. Overall, I have had no problems. I have looked at other brands to see if I should have bought something else, but nothing seems to compare. If you use PIP a lot like I do, this has the best format compared to other TV's. This will also outperform any LCD project TV when it comes to standard definition TV due to the DLP and 6 segment color wheel (most other brands only have a 5 segment color wheel). You can't go wrong with this TV!!!

paid 3k and feel its worth the price. have only had for 2 weeks, but the 720p and 1080i signal I receive at times via outdoor antenna looks absolutely awesome. no flaws to mention. it has a built in formating function that allows you to fit the picture you receive to the screen size. very adjustable with the settings(kelvin, 6 colors, etc...)also has numerous connections making install a snap(weighs 100lbs)very happy with this set for hdtvcouple downsides with analog signal...since it is a big screen size, analog signals can look very fuzzy close up(less than 10 feet)when viewing. This is a major drawback for me cause most all channels arent hd yet. my 32" sony looks better when viewing analog.but for future buyers, this set has a beautiful picture at 720p and 1080i. just need to have access to a hdtv signal.UPDATE... recently hooked up a ps3 via hdmi and watched talladega nights in 1080p. what an amazing experience. I really love 1080p. the picture quality was just fantastic. in addition the video games in 720p look awesome. after several months, I am really pleased with this tv and dont have any regrets.

Great Price fast delivery Amazon is the best thing since low carb bread and This TV rocks. ordered it and wallahh it was at my door in 3 days. At first I thought the screen was a tad to big but guess what ITS NOT. The HD looks amazing. I looked for about 3 months for a DLP TV set. It came down to this one or the 61 inch Samsung. I am so Glad I got this one.I Think the only down side is the Fan noise at low sound level. Other than that You get used to it I guess.People say that you need to get insurance for the Bulb. But guess what A monkey could replace the 75 dollar bulb. So dont waste your hard earned money at Best Buy or Sears or Circuit City with that stupid sales pitch that you need to get the extended bulb warranty. All it takes is a Screw driver to remove the screw and the new bulb housing at the back slides out, slide the new one in and badda bing your back in business.
