Summary: 65HD1 Excellent Performer
Comment: I have had this set since Jan 00, one of the firsts delivered. Performance spectacular especially with HDTV from DirecTV. People continue to be amazed at the picture quality with over the air HDTV, DirecTV and D-VHS prerecoded movies.
This is a sophisticated unit and you should not trust anyone but the Sony Factory Repair in Home service if you have a problem. All new TVs are getting to be too complicated for the local shops and furthermore they cannot afford the sophisticated test equipment necessary to repair a unit if it fails.

Summary: Don't get lured in
Comment: I purchased in 11/01, worked fine until 2/17 and hasn't since and still can't get a straight answer from Sony. For the money I spent, you'd think I'd get alittle service but can't, even calling every other day. One day they say paper work is being processed for a replacement, now they say a technician will be out to service, although that same technician visited 2/22 and found it "not repairable". If you do alittle more research than I did, you will find that people who have had problems, can't get them fixed, and I suspect the people who haven't had problems, well time will tell! Don't bother with Sony product.

Summary: This is *the* TV.
Comment: I got one few weeks ago from a local store. It's worth the hefty price tag.The picture is very beautiful, it's almost like watching a real film even with a humble 480i output from my trusty old DVP-S7000 through components input. I got a chance to do side by side comparison to many HDTVs that were on display. The closest competitors are probably mitsubishi both 65" and 70" RP. I like what I saw on the Sony set much better. The picture has better color and much clearer than the Mitsubishi's. This is clearly a Sony flagship TV. Menu and functionality is top notch and very similar to that's of Sony 32XBR100, the last greatest non-HDTV Sony produced. P65HD1 picture blows 32XBR100 out of water though. On the otherhand, if you want the *absolute* best picture you can get. The 34" tube Sony HDTV (34HD1) is the way to go. It produces the absolute best TV picture I have ever seen in my life. It's also about $3000 cheaper than the 65" RP. I watch HDTV over the air a few times when the I can get a good reception. The picture looks much better than a regular TV. But for now, I mostly use it to watch my DVDs and LDs. Oh, if you worry about the built in HDTV tuner, then don't. It's really a separate box that can be swapped out when you need to upgrade the decoder.
