My first HDTV and I'm loving it! Sep 03, 2008 This is my first HDTV and I am very pleased with it. The picture quality is outstanding. Here are some of my comments, in no particular order....
First, as I write this (9/3/2008) Amazon's description of the item is incorrect. They list it as a 720p receiver. It is actually 1080i. Verified at Hitachi's web site, where you can download a PDF specification sheet, also the owner's manual states it is 1080i.
The owner's manual leaves a lot to be desired. Descriptions of some of the features ("E-Save" for example) are inadequately covered, or not at all.
There is only one S-Video input, and that is on the side of the set, not the back.
The component video inputs on the back will also accept composite video... a GOOD thing!
You can rename each input source from predefined choices, like PVR, DVD, etc. It would be nice to be able to create your own names (like "TiVo" for example).
Setup was very easy. I connected the set to cable, and the built-in tuner found all the analog and digital channels available, and quite a few that had no programming on them (requiring a few minutes of editing of the channel list). Nitpick: you cannot add channels to the channel list manually. You must let the set scan for channels, then mark the ones you want to skip over.
The set's tuner is NOT CableCARD equipped.
Overall, I would recommend this set highly. It has a lot of inputs, including 3 HDMI inputs, a great tuner, lots of features and amazing picture quality.

Consumer Reports Says: Buy HDTV at Amazon!
Washington, D.C. (July 2010) -- When it comes to price, Consumer Reports says shoppers are most likely to find the best deals online. And the publication called three ecommerce sites "standouts" in this year's Consumer Reports ratings of electronics stores: Amazon.com, Crutchfield.com and B&H (bhphotovideo.com)
The magazine's survey was based on more than 38,000 purchases of electronics, including flat-screen TVs, between January 2009 and June 2010. The report indicated that online stores consistently offered better prices. (The magazine's full report can be found in its July 2010 issue.)
"Buying online can be better," the magazine said in a press release. "The higher-rated electronics retailers in Consumer Reports annual reader survey are Web sites. Readers who bought online rated their overall satisfaction at 90 out of 100 -- higher than those who bought in a store. Additionally, many Web merchants offer free shipping, even on TVs, which could spare the hassle of struggling to fit a bulky carton in the car or paying a local store for delivery."
Consumer Reports said that while no single retailer scored excellent in all shopping categories, Amazon.com came closest.
