My Experience: I have had this TV for less that a year and Have had nothing but problems since day one. I have swaped out with Philips and am about to recieve my 4th one!!!! IN LESS THAN A YEAR!!! The first two had the same problem, after about a week anything that was a light color I got a " blueish hue in the upper left corner of the screen and the third one has a fine red line of dead pixels running down the left side of the screen. I have tried to have Philips give me a comperable LCD instead of the Plasma and they wont. This is a JUNK TV DO NOT BUY IT!!!!
