Vizio Rant - Blu-ray Forum

WhoDat · 01-22-2008, 08:01 PM

I bought a VIZIO 26" tv for the basement bedroom, the remote control shows that is has PIP, WIDE, PIP SWAP, and Freeze functions...come to find out that they disabled them!! That's why I bought it!! They (VIZIO) are telling me that the functions are only for the 32" and above!! So, I asked why they make the remote to look the same if the functions are disabled...."to cut cost and not have to make diffrent remotes for diffrent sets"....what a crock!! I'm taking it back to WalMart and buying a damn Polaroid!! at least I know their 26" Freeze function works! I can live without the PIP...but I'm addicted to the Freeze function! Remember...it's a basement guest roomTV so don't go beating me up over quality!

That is all...rant over!

Yea the channel guide is sweet!
