I love the its size, how lightweight it is, and that I can save shelf-space by hanging it on the wall.  The picture is very sharp.  The blacks are crisp and dark.  I use it for regular digital cable (with my tivo) and video games.  I have had no problems with this tv.  The sound quality through the built-in speaker could be better but it has audio outputs which are easy to use and make up for the weak built-in speaker.  All-in-all, this is a great TV and I would not hesitate to buy Samsung again....

I have had a variety of Canon Powershot cameras since 2004, upgrading every so often for the greater megapixels and new features. This camera is wonderful. I love the big screen, and the rechargeable battery lasts a long time, too! It takes great pictures and great videos. There are tons of features to adjust its exposure to exactly what you're taking pictures of -- in addition to the common ones (auto, manual, kids&pets, portrait, indoor, night portrait, etc)... there's even options for the beach, snow, underwater or aquariums! It has a customizable timer feature: you can set it to wait various amounts of time and to take multiple pictures. That is very helpful as it gives you more time to get into place and more takes to ensure you get a good picture with everybody's eye open. :o) Another neat feature is the panoramic option: it helps you take pictures that you can then put together and build a panoramic shot......
