Great But.............2007-12-03
I bought this TV in August 07 after about 3 months of research, got it at a really good price after price match, but 3 months afterward, i was watching a show and all the sudden i saw smoke coming off the "vent-hole" behind TV, and the picture went away and TV was just flickering, luckelu when i bought the TV i had a service plan added to it, but it will take about a week and a half for a tech to come to my house for repair, i am very much hoping to just get a replacement and be done with it but we will see......
TV is great i do believe i got a lemon unit,A good advice is to get a surge protector to use with the TV, for those who wonder i was using a surge protector at the time of TV going down.
Overall a great TV especially watching Blu-ray and playing PS3 games on it.
Best buy for the money..........2007-11-30
I've owned this TV for 2 months now and it is great! The picture is awesome, especially when you can utilize its full-HD capabilities. It doesn't necessarily have all of the fancy features that other TV's have like picture-in-picture, cableCard, or lots of menu options, but when put to the test, this TV will impress!
A quality 1080P TV.......2007-11-29
LG is well-known in Asia and is afiliated with Philips Electronics. They made the most durable cell phone I've ever owned, the C-2000. My experience plus the Consumer Reports recommendation why I made my HD conversion with their new 42" TV.
I've had excellent results with HDTV programs on this set. 1080i programming is nothing short of amazing. You have to get an HDMI cable- a simple $25 cable from Fry's really helped to minimize pixelation during HD sports programming from my Comcast cable box. A DVI to HDMI cable hooked up to my computer's video card allows me to view online programs and Netflix streams in their full HD glory.
Out of the box settings were oversaturated for most programs, a little manual tinkering while watching HD channels worked wonders. There are a lot of customizable options to achieve your ideal picture. You get 2 customizable user settings in addition to the standard ones.
The remote is nicely laid out with easily accessible picture settings. Once you finish customizing, it's only seconds to change to your preferred format for any program. One caveat- it does not recognize Motorola cable boxes nor is it well suited as an universal remote.
Standard definition tv was disappointing, but paying $600 more for a Sony was just ridiculous. The 480p upconvert from the cable box made it more tolerable.
I do not yet have a HD-DVD/Blu-ray player, but will post the results after the industry decides on a standard.
Overall- I highly recommend this TV. Expect a decline in quality of standard programming (most non-major network shows). The trade-up to HD programs will leave you dreaming in HD.
LG Is A Rip Off -- Product Stops Working After 45 Days!.......2007-11-26
Purchased an LG TV on strength of recommendation from friend. TV worked fine for 44 days. On 45th day, picture disappeared and then came back only intermittently. LG takes position that its only obligation under warranty at this point is to schedule service for several weeks out. Answer should have been "Sorry, we will of course replace it." So, if you're looking for a TV for 44 days and don't mind spending a thousand dollars, this is for you. Otherwise, I would try a different brand.
My first HDTV and I love it.......2007-11-14
After seeing HDTV in my friend's house, I have to get one. After two days of quick research, I settled on this TV for the brand name (we have several LG cell phones) and the reasonable price. I bought it online so it is about $200 below national chains. It took about five days to arrive. I hooked it up and let it scan with the cable. It got all the analog but the CADTV side seemed to get some channels with pictures and sound go in and out. I seemed to recall a Comcast brochure stating the local HD channels are provided for basic limited service. I have basic extended service so I should get those along with the analog channels. The two splitters installed by the builder (before using Comcast)have markings 5MHz-800MHz and 5MHz-1GHz. I moved`the cable around to bypass the 5MHz-800MHz splitter and finally got two good HD channels, ABC and Discover, with the clear QAM tuner. Other channels went in and out. Suspecting this cutting off the high frequency for the HD channel, I bought a digital splitter (5MHz-2.3GHz) from Home Depot with enough out connectors to replace both old splitter. Wow, got very clear 20+ unscrambled digital channels with seven or eight HD channels including ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox, PBS and Discovery. Pictures with the HD channels were fantastic, and just perfect, even when you are close to the set. To watch Std. Def. channels, you have to stay about ten feet away, then it is just as good as the other 50" Hitachi analog TV I have. The LG replaced a 27" in the sunroom. Now I have the urge to replace the Hitachi also in the family room.
I also hooked up the PC secondary monitor output to the RGB terminal. Played Netflix "Watch it Now". I got the full 1080P resolution and the picture from the internet streaming is very close to HD. Picture is as clear as HD but the color is not as vivid. Of course, this must be due to some compression necessitated for internet streaming. As a PC monitor, its white is whiter and the black is blacker than my CRT monitor. Fonts are crisp and sharp. I have to turn up the volume for the sound, but I believe this is because of the inadequate sound strength fed by the PC. The sound is very clear even I turned up the volume to 2/3 of the volume bar.
I hooked up an external hard disk to the USB terminal. With the MediaHost, the pictures which were from 5M and 12M digital cameras have never looked as good as on this TV. Color is at least five times more vivid than the computer monitor. The pictures have more depth. Details on the big monitor just stand out so much better. This is the best way to show digital pictures, but expect a delay of the TV responding to your clicks on the remote compared to using a PC, another way to show pictures.
The regular DVD player also shows better picture with the component input than the analog TV. I have not used HDMI inputs in this one week of ownership so I cannot comment on that.
I am sure there are other HDTV's as good as this one, but now I think the LG TV is just perfect. I read many comments complaining about the inability to adjust pictures and audio. Acutally, if one uses USERS setting instead of the predefined ones, one will be able to adjust just about everything.

tough protection for 20 gig 4th Generation iPod color.......2005-10-27
If you work in hazardous environments (or hazardous for delicate iPODS) and need tough protection this is your case.
It is not for constant song changing (full velcro side protection except the top), but I tend to turn the iPOD on and leave it on all day wearing its belt sturdy case clip.
You can see the songs through the plastic window.
The window is too small for the new Video iPOD but works great for the Color 20 gig 4G iPOD. It should fit the other older iPODs with the same dimensions.
Its leather too, except the sides and wears well even with bumping into things. Another important fact- the iPOD is secured with a suction cup leaving air space around the back and front of the iPOD. Good for keeping the hard drive cool if you play it for hours at a time. The space also allows the earphones to wrap around behind the iPOD leaving a nice total package that can be carried into a bag or purse. I have no scratches using this because the front of the case does not actually touch the front of the iPOD. The snug sides hold the front leather part in place above the window.
A waste of money.......2005-10-14
I don't really understand the purpose of the case. There is no way to operate the iPod without opening the case, however the flap is tightly shut and it's a pain in the a-- to open it. It is also too large and heavy.
Totally useless gadget.

Not bad at all.........2005-06-26
I have used my Belkin flip case with a 20 gig 4G iPod for about 9 months. This iPod fits in the case just fine, though apparently the 40 gig model doesn't. The case is paddded leather, with the suction cup and cradle suspension, and is designed to actually protect your iPod, so as others have noted it bulks up your iPod. The engineer in me doesn't mind that. Also, air can pass between the case and the iPod, and this probably keeps my iPod running cooler.
The only annoyance with the flip case is that you have to unhook the Velcro on either side of the case to get at the controls, but the design protects the front controls better than most cases, so there's a tradeoff here. My iPod is still clean and shiny, much better than what it would look like if it travelled in my pocket. Hence, 4 stars as it does what it's designed to do, at a reasonable price.
Good, but not great.......2005-02-05
This case is heavy duty. It's a little bulky, but it's secure. The iPod fits securely in the case's "cradle," and it even comes with a suction cup for extra hold.
The one BIG drawback is that there is no opening for the TouchWheel, so to access the controls, you need to flip the case open.
Horrible Purchase.......2005-01-11
This was one of the worst purchases I ever made. First of all, it does not fit a 40 gig Ipod as it says it does. Second, it makes any Ipod so bulky that it defeats the purpose of buying an ipod. Third, there's no access to controls. Fourth, the sides are velcrow, and my velcrow wore out within 3 months of purchase. Definitely look elsewhere.
