MSRP $1,849.00
Released May, 2008
Pros
- 1080p, 120Hz
- superior sound system compared to other TV
- attractive bezel
- USB iPod interface. While not the best, it would possibly work better with another mp3 player, the ability to control an iPod is very cool.
- Digital Coax (SPIDF) audio output. I use it to connect to my diigital home theater receiver for even better sound.
Cons
- No VGA inputs. I had to buy a $50 converter to use my PC as an input
