Sharp LC46LE700UN

So, i'm in the middle of tv shopping; and I keep running into walls. I want good 24p processing w/o the SOE, low input lag, no risk of IR, and an afforable price... herein lies the problem... not a single set has all of that. the lgh90 has everything except for the ability to separate judder from blur reduction leading to the SOE; the sammy b750 has input lag, the sammy led's are too expensive; the sonys (w5100) of issues with SOE and clouding; and the plasmas, while great, can't properly display 24p without hitching (g10) or have issues with IR (sammys). So, now you can understand why this is driving me nuts (freaking tv has turned into my Moby Dick). However, I soon found the Sharp LC46LE700UN, and while there are no reviews, the specs seem great, price is right, and it's an led with different hardware to not have the edge lighting issues.

So I have some questions about the sharp... if anyone has played with these/owns one, how's the input lag, can you separate the dejudder/blur reduction effectively, does it have the issue with shutting off in dark scenes?? Thanks

You should check over on avsforum since Chad B. recently did a review for this set and he gives it very good marks. I don't know if it has any lag issues...I believe that's mainly a Samsung issue. I've never heard of Sharp having that problem myself. This is a local dimming set and although I didn't look at in detail from what I could see it looks pretty good.

My local Best Buy Magnolia put two in the viewing room recently. One sits above an XBR8 with a Toshiba LED set beside it. The Sharp LED that came out awhile back was reviewed by Sound and Vision and it performed wonderfully. Of course that set was very expensive, but it should be an indication of the LED tech that Sharp is using.
