I just bought this set after extensive research. The price is excellent, & the reliability very good from what I have read. The picture quality is astonishing, its like looking out a window especially on HD. It has 2 HDMI inputs, PC input & PIP. It has an excellent sound system and the picture is a 10. Spend the few hundred and get the 600U not the 60U. Have the TV calibrated for the best pic. This is the first set I have ever bought that I am completely satisfied with.

5.0 out of 5 stars TV exceeds expectations, January 11, 2007

I have had this TV for about 3 weeks now and it is amazing. The picture when watching DirecTV is absolutely amazing. During the Ohio State-Florida BCS championship game, the picture came in so amazingly clear that you could see every drop of sweat on the players and each blade of grass came in crystal clear and vibrant. Watching nature programs that I normally wouldn't watch (because of their fantastic picture), this TV really shines. Anything from water to sunsets, to wildebeasts migrating, looks amazing on this TV.

Even standard definition programming looks pretty good on this TV, but once you see the HD picture, it's hard to go back.

I have this TV hooked up to my Xbox 360 and this HD-DVD add-on and both look spectacular. I am very impressed.

I highly recommend this TV. The pricing is favorable, especially when you compare it to other similarly sized plasma models. This TV can also be had for just a little more than some high end DLP and LCD TVs.

In addition to the picture quality, the sound on this TV is great. Bass in particular is pretty strong. The TV has built-in subwoofers and they are very effective.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome TV, April 29, 2007

If you are worried about Image Burn forget it. No image burns. Image retention is an issue with all Plasmas. This TV has an awesome picture quality. Very elegant and beautiful design. It takes at least two people to mount it on the supplied Pedestal. Diagonal 58 inch is bigger than one would think.
Pros: Awesome Picture Quality.
Powerful True Surround. Don't even need home theater. Loud and Clear.

Cons: Perhaps 1080P-not really a Con.
