TV was purchased on 07-15-08 and is used lightly only for cable and DVD viewing. Sixteen days(16) after the initial warranty expired (thank goodness I purchased an extended warranty in June) the TV did what sounded like a power reset and died. I am waiting for the repair folks to examine it, but it looks like planned obsolescence to me. I will post another review after I talk to the repair folks. It was great, while it lasted.

I don't know how helpful a review of a product at this time when it is replaced by new product, But I was helped by tons of review of this TV right here on Amazon.com. So, I thought I should share my happiness as well. I bought this TV in May this year and extremely happy with it since then.

I won't go into detail like the other reviewers, their information was extremely informative in the months leading up to our purchase of this tv. We researched for a long time and if you need a technical review the reviewers on here do a great job. After reading pretty much everything on the 650, we purchased it in April. It arrived and the "dirty" white glove installation was fine. Two guys arrived and were able to get the tv set up but didn't know why we couldn't get any channels (they didn't realize we had satellite I guess, not the smartest bunch). Anyway, hubby and I set it up later and loved it. A few weeks later we thought we had a pixel out, I was preparing for a battle based on some of the reviews, but the Amazon guy was amazing. No questions, very polite, it was a few minutes before close and he apologized profusely that he couldn't set up the return that very second and would do it first thing in the morning. He called very early the next morning and also sent a confirmation email immediately about the exchange. The new tv arrived quicker than the first but this time it was ceva (the first delivery was a different company, don't the have name right with me). Ceva sent one old fart to pack up old/bring in new tv. Ridiculous!! Wait til you see how big your new tv's box is. I had to help him take it down and switch it out. He had to drag the box across the carpet, which left marks. Had I been older or incapacitated in any way I don't know what he would have done. Regardless, we love the tv and have been very pleased with Amazon.
