Samsung LN46B530 46-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV

45.9" screen (measured diagonally) * widescreen 16:9 aspect ratio * high-gloss black finish * built-in digital (ATSC) and analog (NTSC) tuners for over-the-air TV broadcasts (antenna required) * built-in QAM cable TV tuner receives unscrambled programs without a set-top box (cable service required) * 1920 x 1080 pixels *

Is 720p vs 1080i worth being concerned about? Yes and no. If you're a consumer looking for a new TV, you can happily ignore the 720p vs 1080i debate because every TV which is described as HDTV or HDTV Ready is required to support both formats.

NOTE: You should be aware though that lots of TVs which support 1080i have fewer
than 1080 lines and so scale the 1080 signal down. That's not a huge issue as even
scaled down 1080i is far ahead of a regular NTSC signal. It is worth bearing in mind
that more expensive HDTVs tend to have better scalers than cheaper ones, and this
may be an issue.

However, for broadcasters it's a live issue. Should they broadcast 1080 lines of
interlaced video or 720 lines of progressive scan? They could just broadcast two
signals, one in each format, but that would use up a huge chunk of bandwidth and
be hugely expensive for very little gain.

To answer the question, it's important to understand the difference between 720p
vs 1080i. A 720p signal is made up of 720 horizontal lines. Each frame is displayed
in its entirety on-screen for 1/30th of a second. This is know as progressive scan
(hence the 'p')The quality is like watching 30 photographic images a second on TV.
A 1080i signal comprises 1080 horizontal lines but all the lines are not displayed
on-screen simultaneously. Instead, they are interlaced (hence the 'i'), ie every other
lines is displayed for 1/60th of a second and then the alternate lines are displayed
for 1/60th of a second. So, the frame rate is still 30 frames per second, but each
frame is split into two fields, which your brain then puts together subconsciously.

Most of the time interlacing works fine, but for fast moving images, such as sports
like baseball and hockey it can cause problems which manifest themselves as a
'stepping' effect on-screen. Progressive scan signals don't have this problem and so
are better suited to sports.

ESPN puts it like this: 'Progressive scan technology produces better images for the
fast moving orientation of sports television. Simply put, with 104 mph fastballs in
baseball and 120 mph shots on goal in hockey, the line-by-line basis of progressive
scan technology better captures the inherent fast action of sports. For ESPN,
progressive scan technology makes perfect sense.'

Bottom line? For us, as consumers 720p vs 1080i is not a debate worth worrying
about, so you can relax and focus on all the other criteria on your list when you buy
your next HDTV.

Compact discs are amongst the most popular forms of storage available for computer users. Whether we buy new CDs or burn back up discs, the storage case in which the CD is stored is as essential as the quality of the CD itself. They usually take the form of jewel cases, or a brittle plastic that can break easily when too much pressure is applied; this way, the case and not the CD is what breaks.

CD cases are required to protect the data on the CD. If a CD is dropped, it may get scratched, crack or even break. Keeping the CDs in a case, however, will protect them from scratches and damage. There are many materials used to make CD cases. They may be classified as soft or hard cases. Soft CD cases are pouched designs in leather of plastic. Hard cases are made of molded plastic and offer more protection from impact. The most popular types of CD cases are CD jewel cases, CD plastic cases, CD visors, CD wallets, CD bubble mailers, DVD cases, and DVD folders.

Hard CD cases are known as jewel cases and are similar to audio CD cases. There are also folder-like CD cases that can store a very large number of compact discs. Also available are paper CD cases, which are paper thin, but offer protection from scratches and other surface damage.

It is recommended that one evaluates the specific needs and features required and compare with those available in each type of CD case, before purchasing one.

CD Cases provides detailed information on CD Cases, Jewel CD Cases, CD Carrying Cases, Blank CD Cases and more. CD Cases is affiliated with CD Label Makers.

Customer Review: Buy this one, not the Samsung!
I researched 46 inch lcd tv's for months, and every site recommended the Samsung 550, so I bought it. I'm not a techie, so I'll just say this: the speakers on all Samsungs are on the bottom of the set, so unless you know how to hook it up to an external sound system, every show will sound like you're inside a tin can with the lid closed. I sent it back and got the Sony, which is a VAST improvement; the speakers are on the front of the set, where they belong. The picture is sharp, colors saturated and beautiful, it's easy to navigate. It's a great TV. Unlike the Samsung, which is incredibly shiny and reflective, the Sony even looks great in my living room. I love it!
Customer Review: Great TV
This TV is a great value. It looks excellent (especially when connected to a Sony BluRay). The adjustable backlight with light sensor is a nice feature. It has excellent picture quality. Standard definition channels look better than they do an a tube TV. The HD channels look amazing. It has a good number of HDMI inputs and enough connectivity to other devices. Sound quality is excellent as well - but can always improve by hooking up a surround sound system. You won't regret purchasing this TV.

Full High Definition is the most sorted out technology in the field of LCD TV market. LCD TV which is equipped with this technology falls under the category of high specification flat panel television. Full HD-ready has the impressive features that enhance the picture view and show the full details of the subject on the wide screen. There is a group of people who likes to own a good home theatre with plasma TV equipped with high resolution.

The complete set of home theatre is supported by the Full HD-ready with 5.1 channel sound system for a perfect film experience. HD will improve the quality of viewing four times better than normal vision. Though all flat panel display television were sold as HDTV but most of the television does not support high definition and consumer were not able to grasp exactly what is there in a flat panel display but they believe that all the models can support HD technology and this is fact that prevailing in today's market.

United Kingdom is the highly potential market for flat panel display where flat TV manufacturers are fiercely competing each other to get their market share. Among many models of LCD TV that are being sold only few devices could bring about the full benefit of HD technology. Those models does not even support HD-ready though being sold as HD enabled TV in the market place. It is a true fact that many of the consumers who buy a plasma TV or LCD TV do not have much knowledge and lack in understanding the facts about the technology, in that case they totally rely on the sales person who explains the features and benefit of a LCD TV with or without HD technology. They say that all the models of flat panel television support HD technology but it is not always necessary for any LCD TV or Plasma TV which could recognise HD technology. Some may or may not have the provision and connection to enjoy the full benefit of full HD-ready feature.

Connector such as DVI, HDMI (high definition multimedia interface) and a adaptor in a flat panel display also plays an important role that carries out the high resolution digital images. Flat panel display television should always have a little versatility to go along with other device so as to share and enjoy the fullest of the technology. With the help of this feature you can directly connect your digital camera or camera so as to enjoy the photos & videos in the large screen, likewise you can connect a laptop and view the web pages on the large screen with more resolution.

So it is very important to consider these facts before you buy a LCD or plasma television. Gain much information on adaptability, resolution, connectivity factors and make sure HD-ready sticker on the flat panel display before you select a LCD TV or plasma TV. Manufactures of flat panel display are taking every step to deliver a correct and proper information to the consumer by providing pamphlets and catalogues, so that consumer would have a complete knowledge about the device and it makes easy for them to compare with other brands to make a better choice.

When you go to the store to buy a new flat panel TV, you may notice that there is a remarkable drop in prices as compared to a few months back. This has been the trend because there is also a drop in consumer demand and there is a price war going on between TV set vendors. The decrease in consumer buying power is due to the economic woes currently being experienced worldwide. With lesser people buying TV sets, the stores will soon be overstocked prompting them to offer the units at lower prices.

There are observations that vendors are offering their HDTV sets at very low prices just to survive the economic crunch. There are also market observations that the smaller TV sets, 32 inches and below, may become the more popular items to consumers. Current price range is now from $600 to $700 and maybe offered later to as low as $350 in stores. The $1,000 level psychological barrier of the price for the larger 40-inch sets may also be breached.

Below is a guideline in recommended HDTV displays according to budget range based on existing market prices:

$300 and below:

CRT TV: up to 27 inches

LCD TV: up to 20 inches

$300 to $500:

CRT TV: up to 32 inches

LCD TV: up to 32 inches

$500 to $750:

CRT TV: up to 36 inches

LCD TV: up to 37 inches

$750 to $1,000:

LCD TV: up to 42 inches

Plasma TV: up to 42 inches

DLP: up to 62 inches

$1,000 to $1,500:

LCD TV: up to 47 inches

Plasma TV: up to 50 inches

DLP: up to 62 inches

$1,500 to $3,000:

LCD TV: up to 52 inches

Plasma TV: up to 60 inches

DLP: up to 73 inches

Above $3,000:

LCD TV: up to 70 inches

Plasma TV: up to 103 inches

DLP: up to 73 inches

The future is gloomy for TV vendors, especially this coming Christmas season, if the current market trends continue. But the big drop in prices may well be the savior if consumers will in turn take advantage of the low prices. The stores may have come to come up with good packages like bundled Blu-ray players or home theater set ups in order to entice consumers to make the purchase.

With their weak buying power, consumers may prefer smaller screen sizes in order for them to have extra bucks in preparation for the harder times ahead. It will also be noted that one factor that can influence consumers, specifically in the US, to buy is the scheduled shutdown of analog TV there in February of 2009. Some may opt to buy new sets with built-in digital tuners than sticking to their old TV sets that will require converter boxes. This situation can also be happening in other countries that have schedules also for analog TV shutdown and are currently transitioning their analog TV broadcast to digital broadcast.

Panasonic Viera TH-58PZ850U 58-Inch 1080p Plasma HDTV

Panasonic with the introduction of its flagship PZ850 series, previewed the industrys first IP enabled television. Building upon the market and critical success of Panasonics previous Plasma models, the 2008 PZ850 series includes a number of step-up features that will further strengthen Panasonics leadership position.
Customer Review: Great TV but status of Amazon VOD on Viera Cast is Unknown
I've owned this TV for a little less than 2 weeks. Overall i'm very pleased with my purchase. Installation and setup was easy. I'm using this TV with a Dish Network HD DVR receiver. I've also connected an ethernet connection and a standard definition DVD player. Picture quality is excellent. I'm using the "Vivid" setting, but sometimes use the "Standard" setting for casual viewing to save energy, etc. (not sure how much it really saves though ...). Prior to purchase i was considering this model and the 58PZ800U. I elected to purchase this model because of its Viera Cast capability (i.e., the ethernet IPTV connection). The only disappointment so far is that Viera Cast on this TV does not contain Amazon Video on Demand. I've checked various websites and called Panasonic support and it's not certain whether Amazon VOD will be implemented on this TV via a software update. If that is true, I would recommend to other buyers who are considering this model versus the 800U to go with the latter and if they are interested in the Viera Cast capability, to simply purchase a Panasonic Blu Ray player with Viera Cast.
Customer Review: Beyond my expectations
So much has already been said about this amazing Plasma so I won't waste words here. After months of research this loyal Sony owner jumped ship.After side by side comparisons and reading countless reviews I determined that the Viera blew the Sony XBR away. The Kuros by Pioneer has priced itself out of the competition for my wallet and to be honest I think you are splitting hairs between the Viera and the Kuros.My dilemna was in choosing between the 58 Inch Viera 800 or the flagship 850U. The lesser priced 800 is the only model of the two that gets the THX certification on it's picture and is priced around $500.00 less. The 850U has the firmware and ethernet connection so that it's capabilities are upgradeable.It currrently has the ability to view your Picasa photo's,watch YouTube videos, and a few other neat things like the one click concierge service for any problems the TV should have as well as world weather. The Vera Link option works seamlessly with my Panasonic 55 Blu-Ray player. I was able to have the best of both worlds. Although Abes of Maine consistantly had the 800 at he best price around. I was able to buy a refurbished 850U that comes with the 90 day warranty from Panasonic.I paid $2399.00 and I am so happy I did. This TV is in perfect condition and they pack it like it's the last one on earth. I bought from Just like New Electronics in case you are looking. I'm amazed at this Picture and all the bells ans whistles the TV has. It's has th whole family under it's hypnotic spell.I wanted the cleanest look I could get and replaced my old surround sound system with a Yamaha YSP4000 sound bar. I have no regrets on any of it.By buying the 850U I'm able to stay up to date with all the new ways Panasonic can think of to keep me connected to the world. I love the fact that it has begun to replace my small PC screen and Laptop with 58 inches of mind blowing views. If you can swing it I would not hesitate to buy the 850U. I don't think the lack of THX certification means anything other than Panasonic not wanting to pay the extra money for the Certification in an effort to keep it way under the Kuros.

The Vizio home entertainment line up is centered around TV's. Until early 2009, Vizio were making both LCD and plasma televisions however they have since announced that they are no longer competing in the plasma market, and are instead focusing on LCD televisions exclusively.

When you are searching for a new LCD TV, it is easy to become confused by the technical jargon accompanying the model you are interested in.

In this article I attempt to break through the techno babble to inform you what the most common terms mean and how they should affect your buying decision.

Artifacts

This is when unwanted markings appear in images on screen, such as dots and pixelation. Many Vizio TV's have a pulldown feature that reduces the occurrence of artifacts.

Aspect Ratio

This is the comparison of the width and height of the screen in ratio format. 16:9 indicates widescreen. 4:3 was the ratio on older CRT televisions. Cinema screens also use 16:9.

Audio In / Out Connectors

These connectors let you use external speakers to listen to the sound from your TV.

Colour Temperature Control

This is a common setting in Vizio LCD screens. It lets you change the white balance which you may need to do in various lighting conditions.

Component Input

A high quality video input, this is your red, green and blue sockets.

Picture-in-picture (PIP)

A much lauded feature of Vizio televisions, PiP lets you view 2 broadcasts at once. Usually one is a smaller image that is displayed within the larger one.

Resolution

The higher the resolution, generally the better quality the picture. 1080p indicates full high definition resolution whilst 720p comes second. However most people will not recognize the difference between the two on most Vizio and other brand TV's.

Vizio home entertainment provides quality at affordable prices: that is what Vizio have built their reputation on and that is what has placed them in the top 5 LCD manufacturers in the world.

Sure you can plop down on your sofa in your living room and watch a movie on your new flat panel screen and be content, but for a truly unique, cinematic experience consider dedicating a room to family entertainment and home theater. How do you achieve a home movie theater feel in your home? The addition of home theater accessories can have a dramatic impact on the look and feel of your home theater.

The following home theater accessory ideas can easily help transform a room from a lifeless family room into an exciting room that your kids will want to show off to their friends.

1. Home theater seating - Dedicated home theater seating has rapidly increased in popularity over the past few years as home owners want to experience the ultimate in home theater comfort. Home theater seating typically comes in two varieties, home theater loungers and movie theater seating. Home theater loungers are designed with a premium on comfort with overstuffed leather reclining chairs with many options. Movie theater seating on the other hand is designed to replicate seating found at the local cinema. Both options will include standard items such as cup holders. Child size versions of home theater seating is also available.
2. Custom framed movie posters - One of the easiest ways to decorate your room with a movie theater theme is to add movie posters to the walls of your room. You can choose from thousands of different movies to accentuate the theme of your room. One popular choice is classic movie posters for an old fashioned, nostalgic feel, but choose what works best for you. Do you have a science fiction theme, a western theme, or a kids theme? You could easily decorate for any of these themes with custom framed posters. Another popular choice is to have a now showing poster with the movie that you will be showing.
3. Home theater lighting - There are a number of lighting options that are ideal for today's home movie theaters. Imagine the look on your guests face when at the touch of a button on your remote control, the overhead lights slowly dim until the only lights left are the custom made, theater wall sconce lights and rope lighting dimmed to create the perfect ambience for the movie. At the conclusion of the movie the overhead lighting again gradually is turned on at the touch of a button.
4. Custom movie introductions - Another popular choice for those really trying to create a movie theater like experience is to have a custom movie introduction made for your home theater. Typical intros have the name of your theater, a variety of nostalgic soda and food commercials, movie trivia and previews. All of this would be programmed into your system so that it would be playing while your guests are milling around finding their seats.
5. Popcorn machine - Your theater experience would not be complete without the sound and aroma of fresh buttered popcorn popping in a nostalgic popcorn popper. Kids of all ages enjoy freshly popped popcorn. Popcorn machines come in all shapes, sizes and price ranges. Sure you could just pop a bag in the microwave, but a popcorn popper is one of the home theater accessories that will make your home theater unique and enjoyable.

As you can see there are many home theater accessories that will make your room fun and unique. A truly unique and impressive home theater will immerse your guests in a comfortable movie theater like atmosphere.

Sharp LC19SB25U 19-Inch 720p LCD HDTV

PRODUCT FEATURES:19" class (18-31/64" diagonal) 16:9 widescreen high definition LCD TV1366 x 768 resolutionHigh brightness and a PC input
Customer Review: Everything great but the volume. Purchased at Wal-Mart for $198!
I purchased the Sharp LC-19SB25U at a local Wal-Mart for $198.00 on 4/17/09. I had been looking for a 19" for my kitchen and was waiting for them to get under $200 and really didn't care about the brand, as long as I was satisified with the reviews. I was getting close to buying a Coby thru Amazon or a Sanyo at Wal-Mart when I stumbled across this Sharp on sale at Wal-Mart. I bought it and have been happy so far. I agree with the other reviews regarding the low volume however. I took my computer speakers and hooked them up and they were much louder than the tv's speakers. They are just a temporary fix since I plan on buying a nice speaker to mount under the counter alongside the tv. So for another $20 bucks or so I'll be up to $218, which is still a good deal in my opinion. It is a nice looking tv! I have gotten good deals thru Amazon in the past and am happy with them, but this time I got a better deal somewhere else.
Customer Review: Sharp 19" HDTV
Read all the reviews on the television before purchasing and am pleased with the unit. The only disappointment is that Walmart carries the same unit for $50 less than I was able to purchase through Amazon.

The Sony Reader 700 is the much-anticipated next generation of the Sony lineup. It is actually a huge improvement over the 500 model, though not so much from the 505 model. Still, the touch screen capability might just make this the ebook reader that tops your list.

Most people are very curious about the touch screen on this device. Early reviews show that it is an excellent addition! It just seems so intuitive that an ebook reader should offer this functionality. Instead of having to deal with navigation buttons, you simply touch what you want. This should streamline your ebook reading experience tremendously.

The only problem here is that Sony has had to add the touch screen layer on top of their e-ink screen layer. This means that some of the contrast and "real book" feel that is noticeable on the PRS505 and Amazon Kindle are missing from this version. Still, that doesn't mean that books are totally unreadable, it is just a matter of getting used to it if you've enjoyed other screen types. It should be noted that some people are more in favor of the 505's screen, and choose that model over this one for that reason.

Another addition made to this reader is the backlit screen. This is a huge improvement for people who have been lamenting the fact that previous Sony Readers and the Amazon Kindle require a book light if you want to read them in the dark. That just isn't always possible for readers on the go! The Sony Reader PRS700 fixes that with their backlight.

There are some changes to things other than the screen as well. For example, you will enjoy a faster processor. This will make it easier for you to flip through the pages and navigate around the reader. Some users won't notice a huge difference, but if you are constantly using your reader it will be an improvement for you.

The internal memory of the device has been increased as well. This is a good thing if you don't like dealing with external SD cards. You can now store more items on a device that is the same size without buying anything extra. More books means more reading pleasure for you!

Other features you'd expect to be on the popular Sony Reader are present on this model as well. You can still highlight, mark pages, and easily navigate through your choices just like the previous models you've known and loved. The improvements on this model just might be enough to get you to step up to this version.

If you need a touch screen, back-light, faster processor, and more memory, the Sony Reader PRS700 is right for you. However, if screen contrast is your main concern you may want to stick with the PRS505. Either way, you can't go wrong when you get a device from the Sony Reader line.

Watch the video of the Sony Reader 700 review and see it in action. Only then can you decide if it's the right ebook reader for you!
