I tell you what... I bought this damn thing at a whachucallit damn electro-store and they told me that the monster truck rally would be in super-duper high-speed picture stuff and they pulled my leg right outta socket. I hope them workers that sold me this crap get runned over by the same monster trucks they told me would come right outta the screen if I bought this TV. YOU GO TO HELL AND YOU DIE! Thats what I say.

Regrettably, I agree with D.D. Martinez. Alas, I tried quite extensively to fit this into one of my 14 luxury estates...but could not. I felt that even though having an HDTV is cheaper, I still must opt for paying live actors to perform on stage in my living room 24/7. Even though they aren't quite up-to-par when performing at 3AM, nothing compares to the real thing. I would take to watching flesh and blood with my Dom Perignon and caviar over a sterile, impersonal thing like an HDTV any day of the year. If you'll excuse me, I must now go cleanse my hands in my 24K gold laundry room sink, as I feel I have dirtied myself by reviewing such a mediocre "entertainment" appliance.
Rediculously overpriced May 12, 2008

The reviewer who is building their "showcase" house and looks down on those who live in apartments and dorm rooms, should learn the phrase "diminishing returns." br / br /I have met these kinds of people many times in my travels. They believe all you have to do is throw massive amounts of money into something and it'll be exponentially better for it. Wrong. There comes a place where beyond a certain price point the display unit will not provide the eye and the brain with even an incremental increase in visual quality. br / br /I understand that when a person is ultra-wealthy they don't want to let money be an obstacle, but how gauche is it to waste $40,000 on a TV! $40,000 is enough to build a large, and VERY nice, VERY stylish theater. br / br /$40,000 would be enough to have an acoustically treated room; high-end pre/pro and multi-channel amps; very nice speakers (in-wall or otherwise) that would fill a 3,000 cubed foot room with rich sounds; a virtually silent 1080p ceiling mounted front projection system with an acoustically transparent 120" permanently torsioned screen; in-wall wiring of course; upconvert DVD player, blu-ray player, HD cable/sat receiver, and finally an integrated media-center PC. br / br /I admit that theater seating and the popcorn machine would be extra. br / br /Point is this. If you're so rich you can buy that TV... don't. Make a gorgeous theater for 40 or $50,000, and give the rest to a worthy charity. Oh by the way, I to could afford the TV =)
WAY OVERPRICED April 8, 2008

Clearly SONY is trying to capitalize on LED hype and the relatively few who offer a 70" screen size, but $30K+ for this TV, the term OFF YOUR ROCKER does not even begin to explain the logic of justifying this purchase, SAMSUNG already has LED backlights and and 120Mhz processor for image production for 1/4th the price. SONY needs to lower the price of this to the $8K to $10K range and then it will be a great buy, until then SONY is SMOKING the good stuff, to try and price at this level.
