Mitsubishi WD-65736 65-Inch 1080p DLP HDTV

This is a fantastic TV. I purchased mine from OneCall, who got it to my house in 3 days. The television arrives in typical packaging: a box-over-crate with styrofoam padding. Even with the crate, the television is light and easy to manage, if not just slightly awkward due to it's sheer size. After un-boxing and removing the protective sheet foam from the television itself, you'll inevitably wonder, "Was my wife right... IS it too big?" Don't worry, that thought passes as quickly as it came. There really is no such thing as too big for TVs, after all.

Out of the box, the picture is great. Most people will probably be satisfied with the picture, but will mess with the controls just because they can. After calibration, though, it's stunning. The available controls in the user and service menu allow for an almost perfect calibration session. There was a very small compromise when it came to tint (the 835 series has PerfectTint, so if you're looking for perfection and don't mind paying a premium for a difference you won't really notice, you should look at that series), but otherwise it's as close to spec as possible.

For HTPC owners, take note that there is no DVI connection, so be sure your video card has an HDMI out or that you pick up a DVI-HDMI adapter. Other than that, it has all the connections you'll need. The NetCommand IR works well with my IR components, including the DirecTV HD DVR. Although, it is a little slow. The slight reduction in button response is well worth not having to have an extra remote laying around and I have the added bonus of hiding all of my components. The two included IR emitters can control multiple devices. The television also has NetCommand HDMI, but I don't have any devices capable of utilizing it.

My only complaint with this Mitsubishi is the included remote is poorly designed. Don't get me wrong, it works well. It's just clunky, ugly, and as ergonomic as a brick. The button layout is far from intuitive... it's backwards from most of the remotes I use. All my other remotes have channel numbers on the bottom, television controls (up, down, left, right, menu, volume, etc) in the middle, and player controls (play, rw, ff, stop, etc) on the top. This one is numbers on the top, television controls in the middle, and player controls on the bottom.

All in all, remote aside, this is the TV you should buy if you're not caught up in the fad of paying 4 times more for the same size screen or paying the same for a 4 times smaller screen simply because you can hang it on the wall. I couldn't be more satisfied with the television. Well, if it had a built in beer keg... Buy Mitsubishi WD-65736 65-Inch 1080p DLP HDTV!

Samsung HL72A650 72-Inch 1080p Slim DLP HDTV

You might be very happy with the Samsung DLP for the first two years, but it is about at that time that white dots begin to appear and they multiply until the entire picture is blank. I googled this problem and found many other irate Samsung DLP owners with the same issue. And, it seems that Samsung is in denial of a recurring issue. They should be recalling these TV's. What seemed like such a great Cyber Monday deal two years ago has turned into the most costly, worst-made product I have ever purchased. Buyer beware!Buy Samsung HL72A650 72-Inch 1080p Slim DLP HDTV!

We are still in awe of this TV! Price was vastly superior to plasma or LCD, and while not super flat, they have the depth of these WAY down from the past. Hook up to home theater system and be prepared to feel as if you are looking through a plane of glass - in a movie theater. Just an incredible value for the money.Buy Mitsubishi WD-65735 65-Inch 1080p DLP HDTV!

Oregon Scientific RM383PA Cube Projection Clock with Temp.

I keep clock on floor so projection on ceiling is over 8" tall. (Yes, I measured it) Love the clock. Bright, clear, perfect. For some reason I woke up this morning (March 18) and the time was 1 hour behind. 1 1/2 weeks after DST so that is not the issue. It wasn't bumped or knocked down. Other than that, clock is perfect. I would have given 5 stars yesterday before the problem. I hope I can fix the problem, although not sure what it is.Buy Oregon Scientific RM383PA Cube Projection Clock with Temp.!

Mitsubishi WD-60735 60-Inch 1080p DLP HDTV

We decided to go HD after a long time of waiting. We, for a very long time, used a Toshiba Rear-projection TV at 50" in our living room. We decided that we would need a TV large enough to take the place of that TV and to make it not look so small. DLP is the right choice for this since you can get a much larger screen size at a lower cost than LCD or Plasma. Since we had good luck with our other rear-projection, we figured that we would have good luck with this TV. Having it for a month now, there have been no issues and our view experience is great. The matted screen makes glares much less harsh (our old TV had a glossy screen). The wight of this TV is extremely light for its size, our friend has a 42" LCD which is much heavier than this. As long as you're planning to put the TV on a stand, the lack of it being a flat panel shouldn't be a big deal. 1080p content through our Xbox 360 is very detailed and sharp and the TV never lags behind nor have I seen any "rainbow effect" from this TV during normal viewing. The only con with this TV is the build in speakers to the TV are very tinny and all around subpar. Although if you use this TV hooked up to an AV receiver you will have no issues, you buy a TV for the picture, not the sound. All around I am very happy we bought this TV. I've had nothing but good luck with Mitsubishi, in fact, we still own an old Mitsubishi console color TV from the early 80s that works perfectly. You should have no regrets in buying this DLP HDTV.Buy Mitsubishi WD-60735 60-Inch 1080p DLP HDTV!

Homedics SS-5500 SoundSpa Radiance AM/FM Alarm Clock with Time Projection, Light, Sound and Timer

I have only one complaint; the blue clock lighting is to bright a small problem I cover the clock when I go to bed. I love the gradual light increasing like a sunrise to wake me up followed by nature sounds. I feel less cranky in the morning a ready to go. I like the way the clock is laid out; very easy to use and learn how all the settings work. A great price much less expensive than any other similar product, like that I can use my own light.
