I really owe it to Amazon that I own this television. I put it on my wish list and intended to buy it... someday. I owned a 55" 1080i Mitsubishi CRT that weighed 450lbs. I surfed through Amazon one day and this "personal ad" popped up that said, "this television is on your wish list, when are you going to buy it?" I printed out the information on the television and went to our local "blue" store with the ad in my hand. I wanted to see it in person. They had it on display. I played with the remote. A salesman walked up and asked if I like it. "I love it," I told him, "I just can't afford your price. I wish you could match this one..." He looked at the paper in my hand. "I'll match it," he told me. Well, you could have knocked me over with a feather. I bought the television the next week at the price Amazon quoted (nearly $700 off the retail price!). We donated the old television to an underprivileged family. They appreciated our old TV as they had a small 19 inch color CRT. We were happy for them. But I have to tell you, after we hooked up the smaller 47" the difference was striking from the start. Not only do old DVD's look better, but HD broadcasts, such as NBC (which looks the best) and CBS are extremely sharp. I'm an NFL fan and football games are incredible. The 240hz completely eliminates the "pixil" look during football games we saw on other televisions. The PS3 seems like a new system. Old games are sharper and clearer. The blue ray movies jump off the screen like 3D. Would I buy the TV through Amazon? Absolutely. However, as things worked out, it must have been kismet.Get more detail about LG 47LH55 47-Inch 1080p 240Hz LCD HDTV, Gloss Black.
