Product Description
Movie lovers, rejoice! This Toshiba TheaterWide 50HP82 television delivers everything you've been dreaming of. Cinema Mode 3: 2 pulldown conversion circuitry identifies original film-based content from DVDs. It then reassembles the frame sequence to more accurately reproduce the original 24-frame film-based material, resulting in a more film-like image without the artifacts. Color Temperature Control provides three user-selectable color temperature settings for achieving the optimum white balance. This allows the customer to achieve the best picture quality in any viewing environment or personal picture preference. Multiple video hookups provide connections for different types of video sources to easily make the display the centerpiece of any system. Superb performance and comfort - that's what marks this TV.
Amazon.com Product Description
The 50HP82 50-inch plasma television is primed for movie and sports fans, as well as for use as a centerpiece for home theater and home computing. The set offers a widescreen, portrait-thin chassis, full high-definition quality, and picture improvements for interlaced video signals (such as those from VCRs, cable boxes, and non-progressive-scan DVD players). Heading the great features is IDSC Digital 720P, which coverts all 480i and 480p signals (as from progressive-scan DVD players and DTV set-top boxes) to 720p. Frame, line, and pixel doubling are all used to create progressive, full-frame images from standard interlaced signals (such as composite-video signals from DVD players, VCRs, and camcorders). The set's amazing specs--including 1200:1 contrast ratio, 600 cd/m2 brightness, 0.81mm x 0.81mm pixel pitch, and 1,024 x 768 pixel resolution--put most LCD monitors to shame. A ColorStream HD component-video input provides the ultimate picture quality from high-resolution component-video signals (as from DVD players or satellite receivers). PC inputs include 15-pin RGB input, a DVI 1.0 input with high-bandwidth digital content protection (HDCP), and an RS-232 interface. TV modes consist of 480p, 480i, 525p, 525i, 625i, 625p, 720p, 1035i, and 1080i. PC modes consist of VGA, SVGA, XGA, SXGA, UXGA (4X3), W-VGA, and W-XGA (16x9). Cinema Mode (3:2 pulldown) circuitry identifies original film-based content from DVDs, then reassembles the frame sequence to more accurately reproduce the original 24-frame-per-second material. Four TheaterWide modes enable full-screen viewing of varying widescreen movie formats. Color temperature control provides three user-selectable color temperature settings for achieving the optimal white balance. This allows the customer to achieve the best picture quality in any viewing environment or personal picture preference. Digital Noise Reduction circuitry optimizes poor NTSC signals from antenna or cable. Though the set comes with neither mounting brackets nor a stand, it is easily mountable.

I didn't believe the customer reviews about several of the televisions that are listed on Amazon.com until I became interested in this 50" Plasma Flat Panel HD Ready TV. I was completely sold on purchasing the television, but something told me to read this items customer reviews, as well as some of the reviews for other televisions that are being sold for dirt cheap. After reading other reviews, I found that all of these items are placed by scammers. They all suggest that you purchase your new television anywhere but within the confines of Amazon.com so that they can guarantee that you AREN'T protected against their scams. In fact, I decided to e-mail David Munchen, who's selling this television for $600 USD (including taxes, shipping and handling). Our conversation was identical to another customer review that I saw posted with a Zenith 60" Television. Our conversation was as follows:
Hi,
My name's Daryl Shaw. I was writing because I saw your ad on Amazon.com. You have 50" plasma televisions for sale? I've just moved into a new place, and I'm building it from the ground up. I have yet to purchase a television for my home and I would definitely be interested in one of the televisions that you have for sale. How would I go about purchasing this television? Do you have a number for me to contact you?
Thanks,
Daryl Shaw

Don't Risk Your Money on a Toshiba Plasma June 23, 2004
12 out of 12 found this review helpful
We bought a 42" Toshiba plasma tv. It worked for one month. Toshiba has sent a repair crew to our home three times and they can't fix it. we're out $5000. Toshiba promised to fix it or replace it, but, three months later, it's still broken and we're still waiting for our new tv. Since Amazon has a no-return policy for big-screen tv's, we're at the mercy of Toshiba and their terrible customer service. Before shelling out this much money for a plasma, I strongly recommend doing research on the web about manufacturer's customer service. If I had done so, I would have never bought a plasma from Toshiba.
 Top quality but not cheap August 18, 2003

The guy in Atlanta makes some good points, but two caveats: 1) Fujitsu's plasma offerings are actually better than Toshiba, not by much, but you can tell the difference (if you are in New York, go to Harvey Electronics at ABC Carpet to see for yourself), 2) the Samsung receiver is cheap and works cheap; get a better receiver from Sony or JVC.
Amazing TV/Picture! March 15, 2003

WOW! I am sooo glad i bought this tv; the picture quality is amazing...it's even better than theater viewing! There are not enough adjectives to describe how awesome this tv is. Because this tv is a flat panel, you can put it almost anywhere. The sound quality as well is great! To really appreciate this tv, go get your favorite movie in dvd/widescreen format, sit down and enjoy the show. You will never be sorry you bought this tv. This tv is [worth what you pay for it], and amazon.com is a terrific place to get this television from. This tv is first rate!
