Pros: I recently bought this tv with best buy's 36 month same as cash program, which is an awesome deal, and the tv was a great price ($799 in 6/09)! I am just blown away with the color and clarity of the images i receive. I have hd cable and it really brings out the tv's potential. the set up was quick and painless, and even when the tv is not on it is still beautiful.
In betweens: I have heard several complaints about the audio from the tv, but i run mine through a receiver anyways, so there are no problems. the audio and video are always perfectly in sync which is great.
The only feature i think is lacking is that there is only 1 component in port. i have a ps2 and wii that each have component cables, so i went out a bought a cable that has multiple ends for multiple devices which works great. i have not yet upgraded to an hd receiver, so everything goes to the tv. however, if you have a decent hd receiver, the limited inputs will no longer be a factor and you will only be limited by the inputs on your receiver.
Cons: I have no bad news with this tv. the only time to audio or the video lag, it is a cable transmission problem. when watching movies or playing games, there is never any lack of quality.
What's great about it: Picture clarity, color and contrast
