Great HDTV
This is an awesome HDTV. I purchased it to hang above my fireplace and it fit the bill fantastically. I didn't purchase mine from Amazon but have had this exact TV for 9 mo's and experienced no problems. It was simple to set up, has every input we need. The picture in HD is awesome. Football is in HD is incredible on this TV. I also use it to watch instant streaming video from Netflix with my laptop and the picture is better than digital TV. The only complaint I have is the range on the remote. It does not work beyond 10 feet, which makes it nearly impossible to change channels/volume from my kitchen table (15 feet). I ordered a cheap multifunction remote to hopefully fix this. I remain a bit skeptical on the longevity of this TV due to all of the bad press on Westinghouse HDTV's, but so far so good.
Great Value for the price
I've had the TV for 1/2 a year now and this is what I have discovered:
Cons:
The black is not very black; when you are watching a movie or TV show with a lot of dark views, the black tends to be lighter than more expensive TVs. This just is pretty typical of cheaper LCD TVs but unless you have spent a lot of time viewing more expensive LCDs, you won't mind.
The TV response time to remote commands is very slow. I have no idea why this is but its a bit annoying. Again, its not a big deal. Just be aware that when you hit the volume or power buttons, it will take a second for the TV to respond accordingly.
This is probably the most important con: The up-conversion or regular resolution DVDs and TV broadcasts is terrible. I'm guessing the TV doesn't have a quality up-converter, so anything with less than 720p resolution will look pretty bad. And its magnified by the fact that the TV is huge.
Pros:
For $900, the TV has pretty good color contrast and is very bright if you want it to be. Watching HD sports on this thing is a pleasure.
There are a lot of inputs so you don't need to worry about getting a input box.
Sound is great!

My family now watches more videos. The picture is great. My only wish is that it should have come with an owners manual, and it didn't
