ST rate this TV. (David, thanks for the links last night, this I believe is one of them only at a different store where we have 15% off)... -- (link) - Beaker Jul 22, 05:15 10
- my 26" Samung series 4 is amazing - Danedukenuuk Jul 22, 05:52
- We have a 40" Samsung and it's fantastic. -- nm - Jim Jul 22, 05:31
- I love my Sony.....the only thing I don't see on that listing that I really like is the 120Hz, but I'm just greedy...$600, that's a solid manufacturer - Will Hunting Jul 22, 05:22 3
  - I believe it is 60Hz...(this would be the refresh rate right?) -- nm - Beaker Jul 22, 05:26 1
    - Yeah, mine is 120hz and it's really smooth for sports, and I don't recall the difference to the 60....but it's likely a non-factor....espec for the $$ - Will Hunting Jul 22, 05:28
  - Errr, jeebus....I love my Samsung. WTH is wrong with me? -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 22, 05:22
- i dunno about the model, but i switched to samsung from sony for my last tv and am very happy....nm - xi Jul 22, 05:17 3
  - yeah, we bought a big screen Sony 5 years ago and weren't all that impressed either (the ratings for the model are great at another website. 4.5out5) -- nm - Beaker Jul 22, 05:23 2
