Thumbs down

I would not reccomend a Sharp Aquos. Despite good reviews, I bought and returned three. All three had from severe-to-slight banding issues, and the last had power issues. (Despite what I've read online the banding INCLUDES the 42" models, as that's what I had purchased. Apparently it is believed that banding only occured in the larger models, but I can attest to that being false) Also, Sharp's customer service was atrocious. If you really care and are a stickler for perfect picture, I wouldn't risk an Aquos. You may not notice the banding at first, but I bet you will eventually! I finally switched to a Philips and am totally sastisfied.
