Only worked for 3 days

The only reason I give this any stars at all is because I liked everything about this Toshiba, until it decided to just turn off and stop working. I have no clue what happened and neither does the tech so it must just be a lemon. But to me that's enough of a failure not to buy a Toshiba product again. I might understand if it didn't work out of the box. But for it to work for a few days and then just stop is unacceptable for what is supposed to be a quality brand.
Great TV for it's day

Bought this TV last January for a steal ($700 then). It's a quality set and outperformed most sets of similar pricing. The blacks are great, the picture is crisp, and there's a lot of video adjustment options for calibration. My only complaint is that the built-in speakers are weak sauce (although this is consistent for many flat screens). Also, input switching is not always as responsive as I'd like it to be. Off-angle viewing preserves colors better than other sets, but blacks gray out a bit.
However, nowadays you can buy a better set with higher contrast ratio (this set is said to be ~10,000:1) for similar price from Sony or Samsung on sale.
Best TV available for price (at least when i got it)

I was in the market for a HD 1080p 40 in min TV. After much researching it came down to this model and 2 Samsungs. While I knew I could trust Samsung from the name, after reading many reviews it seemed that you are basically paying an extra $100 or so just for that name. To me Toshiba is a good brand name as well, so I didn't think I would be gambling anyway.
I bought my TV at Best Buy using the $600 price match on Amazon at the time (12/31/09). So far after owning this TV for one week I am thoroughly pleased with it. It happens to fit perfectly into my 2 bedroom apartment living room and I feel the size is pretty much perfect for the place and seating distance.
The only issues I have had so far are minor. The remote for the DirecTV works after programming it to the TV, but for some reason the power button doesn't turn off the TV, so the TV remote is still somewhat necessary. The only other thing I have noticed is that after changing the "pic size" to a different format it resets to the default after turning off the TV and turning it back on. I'm not sure if there is any way to set that to a new default, but either way it's only a minor nuisance.
My closing statement is that if you are in the market for a TV upgrade, but don't want to go all out, then get this TV. Another thing is that if you are going to want a higher level TV, then you should really be getting an LED and shelling out the big bucks. If you are getting one in the mean time that isn't so high priced to hold you over (older technology like regular LCD or Plasma) then I can think of no better way to spend your money.
Excellent value

I've had mine for almost 12 months and it's been superb. I have cable tv connected, an xbox 360 and a wii. The xbox 360 games look awesome in full hd. The wii ain't too bad, but it ain't hd. For the price, it's hard to beat. I'm no expert, but the picture looks pretty damn good to me! Also works with my macbook pro, but the audio and video connect thru separate connections. Audio is average, but for a tv this size you really should be connected to a home theatre type system.

I am happy for this purcharse. It's a beautifull TV. The sound is not good, but using a home teather it is great.
