I'm considering buying this, but haven't found anything solid in the review department anywhere.

I'm wanting to get something a bit larger ultimately, but for now this would actually do well and it's 1080P which is minimum requirement right now........

Also, in some places it mentions the AQUOS name, and in others it doesn't...........are they doing away with that name in their products?

Any help?

    When I was in the TV market earlier this year, I could see a real green push on the Sharp LCD's when comparing to Sony, Samsung, and others. I noticed last night at BB that the Sharp, Sony, Samsung LCD panels all seemed to be pretty close in price, so I would try to compare the PQ as best you can. I think there will be some good deals between T-Day and January on TV's.

    I had the 37" Aquos. Same TV but next size down. I broke the inner screen with a yardstick. Outer screen survived. Really cool pattern where I broke the inner screen. Looked like a multi-colored spiderweb. Good thing I don't do acid anymore. I'd still be looking at it.
    Great TV. Too bad I was careless.
