Limited global brightness, image burn-in, dithering at low light setting, high heat output and high energy consumption, glare from the glass screen. Off the top of my head. That said, I've enjoyed watching plasma sets as well...
Looks like that is not available on the 845 -- along with the quad-pixel thing that everyone shuts off as well. I'm glad I'm not missing anything -- I wonder how you can get an extended gamut when the red output of the white LEDs is so...

Quote:Originally Posted by Z-Mad Yeah, some people utilize this feature, but frankly I personally find it that the right setting with proper picture attributes in terms of brightness, white and black levels, etc. do not really need...

Best to compare apples to apples. I got an offer from Sharp for $405 for 3 years. I got an offer from BestBuy for $360 for 3 years. BestBuy is more expensive on the one-year plan, though. I don't have an offer for 5 years, as shown in...
