I'm still way behind on my email. Now mostly because of jury duty.
Thank God that's over.
Before I start I wan't to admit I know nothing about the specs or tech
of any of this.
I've also been thinking about a new HDTV. Over the past year I heard
that Sharp was no longer selling in the US. I could be wrong. But if I'm right,
it's either coming from outside the US or is an older model?
I also heard something about a certain type of chip all these TVs use.
Panasonic uses something better then the rest, according to them (of course)
and an article I read.
Since I have a 27 inch Sylvania stereo TV with built in speakers, VCR
and DVDrecorder, which seems to weigh about a ton, I haven't been to anxious to
replace it. Maybe this is when I should make good use of freenet.com?
Anyway, I've been comparing the different brands simply by visual
inspection at Costco. They have carried the Sharp, Panasonic, Visio(?) and some
others I can't remember off the top of my head. The Panasonic did look sharper,
crisper and more vibrant when it came to color saturation while keeping detail
in the shadow areas. And before you ask, they were all showing the same movie
at the times I did compare them. It could be the controls on the TVs
themselves, but I'm guessing the store set them up out of the box at factory
settings.
