 Buy it March 18, 2008

This TV is great.
I purchased it at Best Buy in January...and I'm still satisfied with paying 300 more than the amazon price.
Seriously, buy this TV at the Amazon price-- you will NOT be disappointed. I have mine hooked up to a Sharp BluRay player and it is the most gorgeous thing I've ever seen.
Reward for months of research March 25, 2008

Could not be happier with this purchase, especially after agonizing over the decision for months. Was trying to decide between the Sharp, the Sony and the Samsung, also looked at the Westinghouse as I have one of their 32 inch sets and have been happy with it.
Eventually chose the Sharp due to the small footprint for the screen size, and that I got 2 extra inches of screen for essentially the same price or less (Sony and Samsung are 40"). Also, I'm a gamer, and the Sharp accepts the 1080P signal through the component inputs on the Xbox 360 just like it says it does. The others may as well, but I couldn't find any literature documenting it, and good luck with the salespeople at electronic stores.
I clearly made the right decision, the picture is outstanding after some tweaking of the settings. Bear in mind you might not be happy with the set out of the box; give it a chance, you will be rewarded. I have looked for the banding everyone talks about, and as yet have not detected it, and I have been REALLY looking for it.
As for the comparison with the Westinghouse, this TV is a clear step above it in quality and contrast. I still love the Westinghouse, but this set is definitely worth the extra money. This is a very easy product to recommend.
Best in its League! April 10, 2008

Absolutely fantastic picture - blows away my 5 year old Hitachi Plasma and is 1/3 the cost. I wish it would turn on a little bit quicker (seems slower than my other HD TVs), but I can manage. I'd like to see a little better "stand by" timing setting. The factory default is 15 minutes to go to stand by after lost of signal - that seems like 14 minutes too long to me. (Allow consumers to set the time value, Sharp) Would also like it to automatically turn back on when it detects a signal. Here's an idea for the TV makers - how about allowing the speakers on the TV to be the center channel speakers on a 7.1 system? The TV is obviously the center of most AV system so why not allow for that?
Way to go Sharp!
Great LCD you will not go wrong April 10, 2008

I ordered this LCD from Dell when they had a buy an Sharp LCD and get Sharp Blueray free deal. I was not dissapointed. The quality of the LCD is outstanding when viewing 1080i Dish channels regular channels still come in good but whats the point in having an HD LCD. Also have used it with my Sharp Blueray and my Toshiba HD DVD player. Both play outstanding 1080p bluray and 1080i HD DVD's. I got Both from Dell in Febuary 2008 for 1400 and the LCD alone is still going for about that price or more.
So far so good June 18, 2008

Got it a couple of weeks ago, so far very happy with it as well as Amazon's service. While I expected a good picture, the most pleasant surprise has been how "smart" the user interface is and how it can sense what things are plugged in and where...
