1024x768? that sucks. i'd expect 1920x1080@60hz at least on svga port. you sure about that?

Does this tv uses genesis engine or Faroudja dcdi ?

I think his comment was just noting that the tv would adjust various inputs signals on the DVI/HDMI ports whereas the VGA input was limited to 1024x768 max.

It certainly doesn't seem like that big of a deal to me, to warrant such a bashing. I'm pretty sure most of the people here realize what the native resolution spec means.

the VGA input only supports up to 1024X768, but if your display card has DVI or HDMI output, you can pretty much display it at any resoulation of your choice.

quaility is amazing,

I paid 1000 plus tax for it

What???? either you were drunk when you typed that or you were trying to yank people's dongs. Are you saying that your monitor has infinite resolution? Then what is the point of having pixel specs for display devices when all you need is a video card?

According to your info, people should just buy a $500 video card and turn their 19" CRT TV into a super duper extreme high def display interface.

Folks, you can't go past the physical limitation of the device. If you do set your video card resolution beyond the TV's specs, the image would either spaz or you can only see an 'area' of your desk top that fits that screen's resolution. Or, if you are connect through a DVI connection, your video card would not even allow you to select higher rez than your monitor can support. Through the VGA connection, your monitor will likely reject the setting and revert back to the old setting or it will display a black screen. Try it on your computer monitor.

I looked and couldn't find any info - can this puppy be hung on a wall?

Width without speakers? Anybody? Please. I need to put it in a tight cabinet.

Thanks.

Ditto, I'm looking at a max width of 37".

There is a lot of talk about the 1080p. If you are buying a TV today, then 1080p should not be a huge concern, especially if it is a 37 inch TV.

For those really concerned about 1080p, what about DRM? When the DRM gets updated on these 1080p players, they might not even work on today's 1080p TV's. Why? The manufacturers are considering a DRM that requires all components such as the TV to have the same DRM built into them.

I wish everyone who posted this nonsense would tell the rest of us where this undiscovered treasure trove of 1080p content is.

CBS (1080i)
ESPNHD (720p)
ESPN2HD (720p)
FOX (720p)
NBC (1080i)
MSG (1080i)
Altitude (1080i)
INHD (1080i)
HDNet (1080i)
FSN BA (1080i)
FSN AZ (720p)
Discovery HD (1080i)
ABC (720p)
DirecTV 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i
Dish 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i.

It's almost impossible to find 1080P content and the people who do have it are usually ripping it off from the networks after a sporting event is well in the can.

Not to mention that at 37" You can't tell the difference between 1080i and 1080p anyway.

The same people keep saying the same nonsense thinking they're a big shot.
1080p in a tv is great, if you want to pay the $$$. It is silly to complain about it at this price point. 1080p content is available on Blu-ray, I don't know where else you can get it.

True, BluRay offers 1080p content. But don't discount the fact that HD-DVD also offers 1080p content. Both those formats are encoded in 1080p. The only difference is the BluRay player takes the 1080p -> interlaces to 1080i -> then uses a separate chip to de-interlace it back to 1080p -> outputs to the TV. Where as the first generation HD-DVD players take the 1080p and interlaces it to 1080i and then outputs it. If your TV is 1080p capable, it will take the 1080i signal and de-interlace it back to 1080p accordingly. So either way, you will get 1080p. The new 2nd generation HD-DVD player (HD-DVD XA2) will in fact output at 1080p like the current BluRay players do.

can any one please tell me how good SD Channels on this TV as i will be watching more SD & DVD's

Why is it that you have to sit in here and brag about how much better your system is, or how crappy this system is compared to the one your gonna buy in '3 months' when yours finally comes to market. Are you really starved for that much attention?Something about TV discussions seems to cause some people to revert to preteen-hormonal-overloaded syndrome.

I tried the "cheap" route once with a Syntax brand. Came across a Sharp at great price that I couldn't turn down. Compared the Syntax to the Sharp and was blown away how much better the Sharp TV was than the Syntax, no matter how I adjusted the Syntax. You can get a "better" brand TV for just a touch more (and sometimes cheaper if your lucky) if you shop around. I feel that alot of people are happy with "cheap" HD TVs simply becuase they don't know what to look for when it comes to picture quality. All the HD TVs I have purchased (8 in all), I had to be "fine tune" by setting the color, contrast etc. Factory setting usually look like crap.
