Just picked the Phillips up at Costco on monday after my Aquos let the magic smoke out on me. Lucky for me I bought the Sharp at Costco before they changed the return policy last year, they took the Sharp back. With the 200 dollar off coupon i walked out with a new set on the house. Two thumbs up for costco and there customer service!!

It was between this or the 42" Vizio for me, I liked the overall look of the Phillips. Also the stats on paper seemed a little bit better then the Vizio.

Anyways on to the set...Out of the box I thought the setting were really bad, but after a few hours of playing with them Iam alot happier now. Still waiting on the DVE disk to test my eye calabrations.

Iam very happy with the set so far, Blu looks great on it, also no problems with my xbox 360 either. One thing I will say which is typical, is the standard def channels leave a little bit to be desired. But for the money its seems to be a very good set.

Ill try and post some settings here and over at AVS when I get my DVE disk.

On a side not there is no VGA hookup on this set, not a huge deal to me but my 360 I had running via VGA on the Sharp. The oweners manual states to buy an HDMI adapter to hook up a pc.
