Thank you-

If you use the Display's stand,
then use the 4 attachment holes that a mount would use. get some like sized bolts thread them in & attach the lights to bolts agin in rectangle pattern. that way they will be back way behind the Display & not be seen .
better than using tape or velco as then you don't have to worry about adhesive that might remain if & when the display is sold .
You would not want to drill holes, attach tape ,glue or any like that directly to the display because it might void the warranty. you would think ?

My only complaint so far is in playing COD. Mostly when playing two players. When I put the tv into Game Mode, it reduces the quality and makes it REALLY difficult to see people. It was easier to see people on the 61" tv I had previously. Any suggestions or anyone with experience playing video games?

Thanks,

Ryan

On an unrelated note, while cutting up the box yesterday to put into recycle, I noticed that a sticker with the serial number and build date is on a side panel of the box. I don't recall seeing the build date on the back of the TV, so I cut the sticker off and put it in the owners manual for reference.

Does anyone have dead pixels on their big boy and I wonder if sharp would cover this as part of the warrantee. I want to pull the trigger but I'm just a little gun shy about potential issues that sharp may say are "normal". Your experiences are appreciated."........Ruby T

Too bad vizio hasn't jumped in the mega LCD market. I'm sure they would be very competitive and drop pricing of these big lcds to the $3k level. Any stuck pixels on the 80? Sharp would give a hard time covering on warrantee. Ruby T

I'm a happy owner of a Samsung 63 inch Plasma bought about 4 years ago. I'm not super picky about picture quality but i do consider myself a plasma guy. So why am I here?

My viewing distances is 15 feet and I have always wanted a larger display. The 3700 price is now below what I originally paid for my plasma and I'm so tempted to pull the trigger. I don't care about 3d and all those features but I'm afraid once the 90 comes out, I'll want that.

So, does anyone have any educated guess on how low the 90 could sell for in a year? Could it possibly be under 5k? Is it definitely coming? How many of you are waiting for the 90 and how many aren't going to gamble?

I've read most of the thread and the feeling I get is that this 80 is a special tv and we might regret not getting it now while it's still available. Would just like some more opinions to help me make a decision.
