My Experience: When my wife first brought this home for me 2 years ago I thought WOW awesum set. Found out that it was only 1080i and had only 1 HDMI, first bummer. The set looked good and was pretty reliable until it turned 22 months then the projection bulb blew, fine, fixed it and went on. At 23 months the color wheel then shattered inside and to find out they do not manufacture this part anymore for my model#.
On a possitive note even though I didn't have an exsisting warrenty RCA did stick behind their set and offered me a replacement. Though DLP is no more I received a 46" LCD. Better than the set it replaced. Lets see how long this one lasts.

Problems: Crapped out before 2 years.
Can't get replacement parts any more.
If you still have a working model ... sell it ASAP and get a Samsung.
