Samsung
46" 1080p LCD HDTV
Ultra Clear Panel

for $1,699 less $200 coupon = $1,000 + $699 - $200 = $800 + $699 = $1,499

This is very similar to the 550 model except the frame is a clear plastic on a black panel and the screen is glossy. Considering the 550 is priced at $1,399 right now, this one is worth considering with the glossy screen and Costco return policy.

I want a tshirt.

According to OP's link it is now available online.

Costco's return policy is limited to 90 days.

How does this compare to the 550? I have been looking at 650/750 lately though.

Good idea to get both and compare in your home. If you have windows opposite the TV get the 550 because the 650 reflection off the glossy screen is killer. If you do not have to worry about reflections the 650 has higher contrast ratio, 120hz to help with fast moving scenes, and a "soap opera mode" if you prefer to see your films look more like live video. The 550 does not seem to suffer from motion blur that I have been able to find, or video game lag, so I'm not sure what you are actually getting with 120hz.

This is an amazing deal,I've researched for months and nothing compares to this. Unfortunately Costco.com sold out of these but you can try your local Costco. I bought mine at my local Costco on 7/28,the first day the coupon was valid because I thought it would sell out. This TV is not only is beautiful but the picture quality is unsurpassed. I have a 2 yr.old 37" LCD that I thought had a great picture but not compared to this. To get the best picture, get a HDMI cable box from your carrier. The difference between the HDMI and component hook up is very apparent & much better. The HDMI also brings the non HD channels into digital quality. I have a well lit living room and the glossy screen is not a problem at all. I haven't tweaked the settings yet, anyone with suggestions is appreciated. The LN46A540 has the Ultra clear panel & a higher contrast ratio than the 550,for the difference of approx. $100.00 it is well worth getting the 540. I am more than happy with mine.

I bought mine on Tuesday. I got this only because I didn't want to miss out on the $200 dollar coupon. My original plan was to return this after the a650 became a little bit cheaper. But after watching a few movies and some HD content, I have no intention on returning this whatsoever. I also love the bezel with the clear strip and the blue LED compared to the a650's TOC. With a 5ms response time, I can live without the 120hz!

Yes, this set does come with a Wiselink USB Port, I haven't used it yet but plan to. Also, I still want any suggestions on how to tweak the Samsung LN46A540, please.

Where do you get the $200.00 coupon?

longquynguyen said:Where do you get the $200.00 coupon? From the Costco coupon book they send in the mail or just ask at Costco when you are there. This coupon was for 7/28-8\2 and has expired. This tv is still a good buy now at Costco.com for $1699 with the free shipping. Check the current Costco coupon book for other tv deals.
