Default Opinions on the Samsung 540 Series

I recently bought a plasma and at this point I'm not as pleased as I thought I would be. I've been reading up on the 540 series samsung 1080p and I'm wondering if anyone on here has this TV and let me know if it is as good as it's been said. Please let me know

I'm on my 15th hour of break in, do you think I wanna go for another 85 to play my ps3 and tweak my Picture Settings,... I'm reading a lot about the LN 540 series and I think I'm gonna go with that. Maybe I haven't decided, but I'm leaning towards it.

I would say stick it out until after you break it in then when you crank up the settings to the correct levels if you dont like it then purchase the Sammy

Well for the price i guess they are alright i had a 337H and when i had it i thought it was a decent TV but now seeing this Sharp, Olevia's do suck pretty bad....But there kinda nice as long as you dont compare it to nothing...
