My dealer says sometime between the 14th and 25th of this month. They went into production on the 3rd of the month. If they are available before the end of the month, I have the option of swapping my 525 with the 725 if I pay the price difference... I may just do that if given the chance.

I will swap out my WD-62525 for the 725 as soon as they become available.

To anyone and everyone who views a 725 in the store.....if you can, please have the salesperson hook up a Mits HD2000U D-VCR to the 725 via firewire and see if it records HD. Thank you.

Where do you live, i.e. what area of the country? I'm waiting for a 725 as well.

I have a WD-62725 on order. I was told that they will not ship out until Sep. 30th. Just FYI.

I'm hearing 9/20 for delivery to the warehouse here in San Diego.

how does it measures to 525?

I like the look alot with the black on the bottom. very classy. after months of watching and waiting, i'm going to jump on the 62725.

Steve can you change the name of this thread to ...xx725 owners thread to pull in the 62" owners?

For anyone living the Seattle/Tacoma area, Magnolia will have the 62725's in Oct 15th. I have pre-ordered one from the Tacoma store, said they had 60 units coming in and 20 had already been sold.

I got you covered! The tread title is changed. Plus I've added it to the Mits section of the "Popular Threads" post stuck near the top of the forum. So it will always be easy to find.

Its a nice looking display!

My 52725 gets delivered tomorrow. I can't wait!

Just saw the 52725 at Anderson's in Dublin...Anderson's has 82 in stock, and will get the 62725 in 2 weeks.

The box looks great, screen guard is much less reflective, and I didn't notice any tilt/skew to the image. The only draw back is that the lower section of the box (around the feet) is silver, versus black for the rest of the unit. It looks pretty stupid, but it will help with matching the Mits stand.

Price is $200 over the xx525.

I pick my 52725 up tomorrow at Ultimate Electronics in OKC. I'll let everyone know how it looks.

I just got home from pulling trigger on 52725 purchase. I have been waiting on the Sammy 5674 for a long long time and now hear it is still more wait and specs may be less than originally thought. My local Ultimate Electronics unboxed their first 725 just for me to see. I liked the all black front and the glare was a lot better (there is still a little). I think that glass screen is one of the things that really helps make the sharp picture.

Should get it Sunday or later next week. Will post when it is all setup. Like DRE it is my first HDTV.

I guess I am giving up 4" and the the DVI port as compared to Sammy. I think other features like net command, better PIP, firewire, plus get it now make it worth it. Mitsubishi is definitely a good manufacturer as I have now owned nothing but Mitusbishi (as main TV) for my entire adult life (over 20 years). Hope this proves to keep me happy customer.

Can't wait until delivery - it will be like a kid at Christmas.
