So true....I returned 9 samsungs!!!! All different models too. And the best part was me and the bestbuy manager opened up all of them in store and witnessed all the problems.

He thought I was crazy when I returned 2 of them so I asked him to open up the following one with me and sure and behold the next 7 had problems. He was shocked and apologized to me and gave me one heck of a deal on my current Panasonic.

But back to the thread, I've owned countless Samsungs and after purchasing and selling my last Samsung 32inch tv and buying my current Sony XBR6...I will probably never go back to Samsung.
