This TV is nothing short of spectacular. I'm not really sure how you improve on the picture quality. I'd love to compare it to the $10,000 Pioneer plasmas and see for myself exactly what the difference is. I bought mine through Amazon.com for $1358 and had zero problems with delivery and setup. I was leary about buying a plasma TV through the internet and having it delivered without damage. It was fine.
I have a HD cable box hooked up to this TV. Within the range of HD channels, some are better than others in terms of picture quality. It's not the fault of the TV, but rather the signal strength and how the video was originally created. I would say the overall range is from very good to absolutely stunning. Even on SD channels, the quality is good to very good, but not HD quality. Fortunately, there are a lot of HD versions of the most popular channels out there and I would expect more to be added.
I also bought a Samsung home theater with the wireless rear speakers and the sound is amazing. Don't rely on the speakers that come with this TV or you will be disappointed. My home theater came with a up converter for DVDs and there the quality ranges from OK to excellent. My DVD copy of "War of the Worlds" was pretty disappointing, but "Pirates of the Carabean: At Worlds End" was excellent. I have to believe there's a range of quality among DVDs. I believe Blue Ray is the way of the future, but the price of movies is still pretty high compared to DVDs - at least $10 more per movie.
