I would buy this LCD HD TV again.

"I looked at and researched several LCD HD TVs. Came down to Sony and Sharp Aquos. All things considered I picked the Aquos. The Aquos was also less expensive. This is my 2nd Aquos LCD and like my first one has excellent picture quality. Don't have digital HD cable service yet, but even with analog the picture quality is great. The piano black finish and general look of the TV is very impressive. Set up is easy ..." Read Full Review »

"I am very happy with the unit overall. It does take about 30 seconds to turn on when you hit the power button on the remote. The last channel button is small and not strategically placed.
