Ordered TV from amazon.com delivered by Pilot. It was delivered a day sooner than the earliest date promised. Overall experience w/ Pilot was way better than CEVA.
As for TV, I bought Sony KDL 52v5100 but I was so disappointed with Sony's picture quality and features of that tv that i decided to break my loyalty with sony after so many years. I will need to post an update as it has only been 24hrs since i got this tv, but my initial reaction is that it seems to be great. looks are good and it is full of features. beats a comparable price-range sony anytime. picture quality is also very good. one thing i noticed though, is that there is a gap b/w the glass surface and the actual LCD (less than 1/8inch). keeping my fingers crossed, as i have heard bad things about samsung customer service.
Update #1: Ok here is an update. For some reason the tv keeps forgetting fav channels!! This may not be relevant for many ppl but I have hooked up CATV cable directly into the tv. So when I add a fav channel, a bit later the channel goes missing from the fav list. The same thing happened to different channels at different times. Flipping channels though is much better - actually its pretty awesome. I was used to Sony, which takes annoyingly long time to change channels. But like I said, this may be a non-issue if you are using a cable box.
Also, hooked up LAN cable and it would not pick up automatically so had to input all IP/DNS addresses. Internet activity is a bit slow (probably due to slower processing). Yet to check out how DLNA works. USB functionality is great - plays almost all video files, displays pictures in crisp quality, plays music etc.Get more detail about Samsung LN55B650 55-Inch 1080p 120 Hz LCD HDTV with Red Touch of Color.
