What's great about it: function
What's not so great: price
while all these types of products seem overtly pricey......this one does function as advertised.
The amount of liquid that comes out of the sprayer, "per pump", is sparse....thus, several sprays are needed to wet the screen. The microfiber cloth is large with this kit, which is a plus.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: price (relative), tilt feature
What's not so great: hard to adjust while mounted
While i disagree that ANY of the mounts that are available have "value for price" (my god people, these could be made for about 10$, yet cost upwards of 70 or 80$ and up to 200$!), this mount is at least slightly cheaper than most other mounts, and offers the same size/weight capacity...and has the tilt feature.
The assembly process was quick, and it mounted up to the studs easily. The only gripe i have is that the "tilt" adjustment is hard to get to without actually taking the tv back of the wall in a "trial and error" type manner.
overall, im satisfied with it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: picture and features for price range
What's not so great: on board sound
I bought this as a tv for our bedroom....it has been well worth the money.
While it doesnt have the quality our sony bravia 120hz has....it does have excellent picture quality. We cought this model on clearance for about 200$ less than anything in its class (specs/size).
as with most flatpanels...the onboard sound isnt the greatest, but it does provide adequate volume for our bedroom (which is about 15'x 18')
great buy.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Can I use a Rocketfish LCD Cleaning Kit on an LED screen?

yes.
The "screens" are the same...the difference is the backlighting.
LED uses light emitting diodes ("led"), while the LCD uses a fluorescent type gas charged bulb.
As far as external screens...they are quite similar.

Will one wall stud support a 55lb flat panel LCD?

I see there are only 4 holes in the wall plate. Does this mean that only 1 wall stud is necessary to hold the weight and width of a 40" tv?
in short : probably so, although the other holes SHOULD be spaced so that at least a couple more holes hit a stud (assuming you have standard spaced studs @ 16").

Can I use an HDTV on a non HD sytem?

I currently have Dish TV. It is not Dish HD. If I buy a HDTV, even though I don't have HD, will I be able to view regular TV using the existing Dish Box? Will I need htmi cables.
you certainly can hook the tv up to the non-hd receiver box. The only downside is that you wont appreciate the money you spent on the HD television set, because it will look no better than your old TV.
Aside from that, you'll have to work with the "zoom" feature on the tv in order to make the picture fit the screen (due to the non HD signal).

You can use av (red/yellow/white) cables to hook it all up, but again, it wont look great. If you ever upgrade to the HD receiver then you would definitely want to grab an HDMI cable (although i have direct TV, and they gave me an hdmi cable with each Hd receiver).
