 Good bedroom TV, viewing angle issue September 1, 2008
This TV has a great picture and crisp sound. I have read complaints about the sound, but the sound is much better than I have ever heard from build in TV speakers. Of course it will not compare to a receiver with surround speakers, but for small TV speakers, the sound is excellent.
This TV also has very good multiple alarm options which make it great in a bedroom for waking you up to your favorite TV station.
Because it is LCD, the brightness drops quickly when the viewing angle is lower than the level of the TV. This can be a drawback in a bedroom where the TV is higher than the bed. The TV will not tilt on the stand, so I had to put the folded up Quick Setup manual under the back of the stand to tilt it forward. I then turned the brightness up to 85 while leaving the lamp on only 5 because the room is generally dark. This gives a good picture from the level of the bed, but the picture is washed out when I stand up.
Note that the TV has only one RF input, so if you have cable without a box, you cannot easily connect a regular antenna.
Be SURE to screw the stand into the base of the TV with the 4 included screws. I assumed it would snap in, and it fell out right on my foot. No kidding. It hurt. The useless "Quick Setup" instructions say nothing about the stand. The best use of the Quick Setup is to put under the TV stand to tilt it.
My TV required the new firmware ROM flash to program channels properly. It is installed easily with a USB thumb drive.
 Outstanding Picture August 23, 2008
We purchased this Samsung for our bedroom and couldn't be happier. The picture is as good as it gets. We've been watching the Olympics for the past two weeks and we've been amazed by the quality of the video.
We're also very pleased with the size of the screen. We're not into huge TVs that take up an entire room, we found 26 inches to be the perfect size. This is obviously a personal preference, but it works well for us.
We have Verizon FIOS, and unlike our 22 inch Samsung, we've had no problems with the HDMI connector on this set with the connection to our Verizon Set Top Box.
The audio is on par with other 26 inch LCD HD TVs. If you want surround sound, there are plenty of connectors so you can easily attach an inexpensive Samsung Home Theater [or any other brand] to the TV in only a few minutes.
Overall, this TV is fantastic and we're so glad we decided on a Samsung. We bought it from Amazon at a very competitive price.

Althought I haven't watched this TV yet, I have other Samsungs TV's and love every one of them and everything about them.

This is an awesome TV for my uses. It's the perfect size for my bedroom now, and for my dorm room in a few weeks. The picture quality is amazing when being used with my 360 or with DVDs. Like most of the other reviewers, the weak speakers are my only minor complaint after a little more than a month of use. For the size, price, and quality, this TV is perfect.
