Review: I bought this 1 month ago and I am blown away! It didn't even mention in the specs that it scales HD! I plugged my canblevosion box with HD and it works!! Also, the best picture I have seen with a DVD. remote was easy but not great but the picture was stunning!!!

Summary: Very nice TV for the money
Review: I bought this unit to be used only as a TV, and it is excellent. The picture is crystal clear, very good sound from the speakers, and a very nice looking unit. Easy to hook up out of the box and comes with a few basic cables you might need. Only drawbacks to me are that the remote is way too big, it is huge. And when hooked up to a cable box, my TV will have a delay when you change channels, images take a second or 2 to come up. I tried both a digital cable box and an analog and had the same results. Overall a great product and highly recommended. Ecost.com has them for $595 w/free shipping, much cheaper.

Summary: NOT A MONITOR
Review: I purchased this LCD TV thinking that I could use it for a computer monitor as well, but it is really not designed for that purpose. Technically, I can plug it into the computer and get an image, but the image is exceedingly blurry because the resolution is that of a regular tv. There's no way you can read text that blurry. I had trouble getting information regarding this aspect from the documentation and online salespeople, so I thought I'd better post the info here. As a tv, it's fine, although the sound is not as good as my external 40W computer speakers. Also, it doesn't receive tv images without an external antenna or cable plugged in.

Summary: Very nice TV
Review: This is NOT a monitor. Your resolution at best will be 800x600, or more likely 640x480 will be as good as it gets. However, this is an excellent TV. Good colors, good refresh rate, and I have experienced no delay in changing channels as the other reviewer. You have a wide variety of inputs available, including RCA, component, VGA, S-Video and Coax. PIP and POP modes are both available. The only problems I am aware of at this point are that I cannot view the Coax and S-video inputs via PIP at once. Viewsonic has not helped in this regard. I am still waiting for their input. Also, there are six buttons on the bottom of the remote that I cannot find a function for. Additionally, these buttons are pictured in the manual but not explained. For the price, though, this is an excellent TV.
