 Samsung HPT4254 April 6, 2008
I have been very pleased with my purchase. The picture on this model is incredible. I spent a lot of time researching this purchase. I actually went to Circuit City to compare the picture on this set versus the picture on a comparable Panasonic model and I believe the Samsung TV is superior to the Panasonic. Also, my brother in law has a 50 inch Panasonic 1080P plasma and the picture on my plasma 720 Samsung is significantly better. The delivery service was excellent. I received the set in about a week after the order was placed. All in all, I don't believe you can beat the Amazon price along with the free delivery. The biggest problem I have is that now I don't want to watch TV on any other set in the house.

Had the set 6 weeks when it stopped turning on. Now going through the run around of getting service out. 5 days since I called Samsung and still no appointment yet.
Great TV for My Living Room April 1, 2008

Two months ago, I finally made the leap from SD to HDTV. With as much TV as I watch, I'm not quite sure what took me so long. This is the TV I got, and I'm loving it.
I live in a condo with a small living room, so this seemed like the perfect size to me. Compared to my old 27 inch TV, the size is an amazing improvement. Yet it isn't too overwhelming for my room.
Even though the room is small, I wanted something that wouldn't distort if you were viewing it from an angle. The plasma screen was perfect for that, and I've been very happy.
In fact, the HD pictures are so sharp it is amazing to watch. At times, it still takes my breath away. I'm actually disappointed now when a show is in regular definition only. I had to play with the settings when I first got it home to find the ones I liked, but once I did, it looks amazing. The 720P resolution is great for my needs, and the 15000:1 contrast makes pictures look sharp. And the regular programming looks great as well, although it is more obvious when the source material is poor then on my old TV.
Plasma screens are notorious for their glare, and that is something I considered long and hard before I bought this TV. There isn't much I can do after the afternoon sun my living room gets (except close the blinds, of course), but the two halogen lamps I have create less glare on this TV then the on my old tube television.
I will admit I found the sound to be less then outstanding. It's adequate, but seems to be awfully quiet. Additionally, sometimes when I play the sound through my surround sound system, I get a half second difference between the two. It's not enough to make the lips off, but enough to be annoying. Naturally, I solve this by turning down the sound on my TV and just using my surround speakers.
The TV has features designed to decrease the amount of screen burn in. Personally, I watch most things in stretch mode (I know, I know), and I haven't had a problem with burn in yet.
It only took until I was done playing with the system to have me completely sold. You can bet I will be enjoying this TV for a long time to come.
 Great panel! Poor amazon service! March 28, 2008

As other buyers were saying, Amazon and other sellers have issues with delivery companies! Mine was CEVA! Amazon scheduled the delivery for 26th! I spent entire day waiting for my box and guess what? Right, it did not arrive!!! Next day I called Amazon! They said it is out for delivery today! Then I decided to call CEVA and they said that I had to make an appointment for delivery!!! Wow! Did Amazon mention it?! Moreover, trucking company was trying to call me at the number that was provided by Amazon. Here is the number 00012345! Have you ever had any success dialing such number?! Right, ether delivery company!
CEVA was great! After I scheduled a delivery they called me one hour before delivery as promised and came to my door at 7:07 pm after I came from work! So, if you get your TV delivered by CEVA CALL THEM TO SCHEDULE THE TIME!!!
Product:
I love the picture! Even regular cable definition (non HD signal) looks fabulous compare to other TVs!
If you are looking for a panel at one grand, do get this model!
So, Product A+, CEVA A +, Amazon C
After much research we bought this one March 26, 2008
I was a bit apprehensive on buying something so expensive and fragile on-line. However, Amazon had it shipped (free!) using a white glove service.
This means the delivery person helps you get it unpacked and does not leave until you make sure its perfect and working.
I spent a week on-line researching these plasmas and for the money, this was my best choice. Amazon had the best price by almost $500.00!
Highly recommended for those who want a 42 inch that is gorgeous and not going to break the bank.
