My Experience: This is a great product, i use it both for TV and as a Computer Monitor.
Picture is average with the Analog tuner, as you would expect, but is comes to its own when you use any of its Source inputs. The picture is sharp and color is even and uniform from edge to edge. When using Component input, you think you can reach out and grab from the scene.
As for PC input, its magic and HUGE. Its resolution is 1360x768 maximum, but when you use the analog input (15 pin conector) you can actually use it to 1600x768, but you do get some compression, so it can be a little awkward reading small text, but the graphics is magic.
Too many other features to mention, like Picture in Picture, Teletext, etc.
Even with a quoted 18ms display refresh rate, i had no ghosting when playing high speed games, like Quake II, Quake III, Doom 3. You really need to go and see this item in action. I did and now i own one !.

Problems: I hate the input selection method. You need to cycle thru ALL the inputs before you reach the input you want. It should be just press a button and your there. But you need to press the button 6 times before you reach the input you need, and theres a delay about 2 seconds each time it switches input, so takes about 20 seconds all up...
Contrast could be better, but picture is still great.
Also anoying when you setup you view ratio in TV mode (16:9, 4:3, panarama, Zoom), if resets everytime you switch input mode and go back to TV or turn TV off and ON again. So you need to enter you ratio view mode again..
Thats it..
