I was finally ready to purchase a HDTV and went down to the local Best Buy because the the great financing of 2 yrs same as cash and sales they had this Memorial Day. I was interested in the 42″ Sharp Aquios LCD 1080p before I was on my way down to the store to view all TVs in person. When I got there I saw the other tv I i was slightly interested in to compare it to the Aquios was the Toshiba REGZA 1080p and was blown away by the resolution of the promo they were playing on HD DVD, the price and of course 3 yrs same as cash pan they had on Toshiba tvs. Needless to say I was sold! I got the TV for $1519(minus tax) score. I am a big fan of Toshiba from the TV I replaced which I bought in winter of 2000 which has never given me problems. While I was there I picked my Toshiba HD-A20 1080p HD DVD palyer to replace my original DVD player that I had purchased back in 1999 and paid $400 for, and agian never gave me any problems. Viewing both “Phantom of the Opera” and “Corpse Bride” were amazing at 1080p and I’m a stickler on resolution. Needless to say I side with Toshiba there products and HD DVD. I am at this moment extremely happy with my purchase.

Just purchased this TV in May ’07 and am very pleased so far with the purchase. I read the previous review and I guess I can see that it’s not the most premier picture in the HD universe, but it is still pretty outstanding.
The key here for 5 stars is value – for around 1600 with shipping or tax you’re getting a 42″ flat panel with 1080P (built for the future). It’s also Toshiba’s 3rd generation technology whereas many of the Bravias and Sharps are still on their 2nd generation.
So, while maybe not the top 1% of HD pictures and at times you see some pixelation (very minor, possibly due to the inferiority of the source) it costs less than half of some of those monitors. If you’re looking for great value this is the TV – remember that you’ll pay about $125 for nice HDMI cables to hook it up properly and you can get the whole package for a great deal.

Awesome picture quality. Don’t know what else I can say, so I won’t spend a lot of time going through this or that, it’s what you see that’s important. I have 5 HDTVs and this is as good as any of them. High recommendations for this Hi res unit.
I have no financial interest in anything I review.
