There is a link to avsforums for the sharp already and also it is known fact the sammy's have higher contrast ratio and no banding issues.

MyDiscover has a point in that if you want a better TV, the Samsung models are probably it. I, for one, own this TV and my only regret was that I only got the 46" and not the 52". For the record, no banding on mine.

They have this same price at Circuit City right now. Pricegrabber shows $100 more. Good deal, but certainly not jaw dropping. By the way, you can get banned for calling other people ignorant on this forum because you don't agree with them. You might want to show your intelligence and edit your post.

I have this TV as well as other 2 friends of mine. Absolutely no Banding issue for us. These are great TV for the money.
FYI the "nut-swingers" about contrast ratio. MFGs can claim any "dynamic" contrast ratio if they want. They all vary differently and not "uniformed" to a standard. Don't get me wrong, I have both the Sammy and Sharp. They're both great TVs. But comparing contrast ratio is useless unless you see it & tune it to the optimal performance.
people in washington state would do better to buy from vann's directly and avoid state sales tax (9% in seattle)

seems that people don't know a factual statement from a put down - being ignorant is being unaware. that's all.
