Plasma or LED?
I am extremely confused with the two options! Which TV set offers the best over all experience? Plasma Or LED?
Although deciding which technology is better is purely subjective and based on your own tastes, I can arm you with the knowledge you need to make the right choice. Both provide an excellent HD picture, offer stunning arrays of colors, and of course, Samsung’s exclusive technologies which allow you to get the most out of either panel.
LED is relatively new on the market, and uses specialized versions of the LED lights that have been used for years. It allows panels to be lit either from behind the panel (replacing the CCFLs with LEDs), or from the side using an efficient energy friendly infrastructure that emits light evenly behind the panel in order to illuminate the entire LCD panel equally, called EDGE-LED. EDGE-LED Technology has a few additional benefits in that the design of the LED panel can be slimmer than traditional LCD panels and reduces energy consumption.
Plasma Televisions operate using a combination of gas and glass to illuminate the individual pixels, or light sections, within the screen. The life of a plasma panel is up to 100 thousand hours, allows an expanded viewing angle over LCD, and has a response time as fast as .001ms. All of the Samsung Plasma units have a feature called Screen Burn Protection, which helps reduce the effects of static images and provide a quality image for the life of the panel.

DOES THE TV HAVE TIMER ALARM?
Can you turn on the TV on like an alarm? Can you turn it off on a specific schedule?
As a matter of fact, the PN58C8000 does come with both an on/off timer and a sleep timer. In order to access the timer, you will want to head into the TV's menu, then into the setup sub-menu. Once there head into the time option, and you should see the timer setup. Also you can press the "Tools" button on your remote to bring up the mini menu where you can easily select your timer settings.

firmware upgrade PN58C8000
the BB magnolia rep suggested that the PN58C8000 will have a firmware upgrade from samsung by the end of august. what will the upgrade fix, and can the upgrade be complete though the tv's wireless link? thanks.
Although the update can be performed directly on the TV though the internet, unfortunately at this time, I do not have any information on any firmware updates for this model. For updates and information on future firmware updates, please visit Samsung's website.

Is there a chance I will hear a buzzing noise?
I've read some reviews on plasma tv's, and saw that some people had a buzzing noise problem. Is that a common problem with plasma tv's?
The buzzing sound your plasma TV makes is normal. It's caused by the electrical charges that are used to create the images on the screen. The buzzing, however, should not be so loud that you can hear it when the volume on the TV is set at normal levels.
If your Plasma TV is buzzing loudly, follow these steps:
1. Set the volume of the TV to the setting you normally use.
2. Stand at least 15 feet away. If you do not hear the buzz, your Plasma TV is working normally.
3. If you continue to hear a loud buzz when you are 15 feet from the TV, return to the TV and see if any cables are resting against the metal back cover of the TV. If cables are resting against the back panel, reposition them so that they do not rest against the back panel and see if that reduces the buzzing.
