Well, we finally gave up on Sony. The poor product quality of four tvs along with the terrible Customer Service was too much. It's sad that we enjoyed returning it. Also, it looks like we are back at Walmart since both Sears and Best Buys "extended warranties" start the date of purchase, not at the end of the manufacturer's warranty. I don't know about the rest of you, but why should I have to pay for a warranty to cover what is already covered? Not to mention their warranties are close to double for a shorter time period.

Now we are trying to decide whether we want to go with a Samsung LN40C530, a LG 42LG450 or a Vizio VT420M. I have researched a lot on the internet, and despite conflicting information on several sites, all seem comparable. We would appreciate any experiences, information, etc. on these tvs.
