Value for money really is represented in the Westinghouse HDTV's...$1500-1800 for 37 or 42" screens with 1080P capability, multiple inputs including multiple HDMI inputs.  The screens look really sharp in person.  On paper this TV sounds good, but there is no comparison.  I have one myself, and I would recommend them to anyone.<br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[JoeSchmo]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 18th 2006 6:42PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Engadget HD Review: Olevia 542i 42-inch LCD]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/10/18/engadget-hd-review-olevia-542i-42-inch-lcd/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/10/18/engadget-hd-review-olevia-542i-42-inch-lcd/</guid><description><![CDATA[I stuck with the Visio 42" for $1300. Same resolution, two HDMI inputs, and a place that will let me return it years later (not that I'd abuse that kind of policy). In fact, one could get the 46" Visio LCD from cost-co for the same price as this 42". Just a thought.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[GhostDoggy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 19th 2006 8:23PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Engadget HD Review: Olevia 542i 42-inch LCD]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/10/18/engadget-hd-review-olevia-542i-42-inch-lcd/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/10/18/engadget-hd-review-olevia-542i-42-inch-lcd/</guid><description><![CDATA[Yeah, but for as much as this, you could get a Westinghouse 42w2 and get 2 DVI ports and 1080p resolution.

My friend bought a 42" 1080P westy.  It has 1 HDMI and 2 DVI ports.  I wish it had two HDMI and one DVI.  But the picture is awesome.  I took my PowerMac G4 to his home and hooked up a DVI cable between the mac and his TV and the Mac recognized it as a Westinghouse 42" 1920x1080 P 60Hz monitor.  Everything looked great and no overscan.  This is the kind of display I want when I am in the market.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[siva]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 18th 2006 7:21PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Engadget HD Review: Olevia 542i 42-inch LCD]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/10/18/engadget-hd-review-olevia-542i-42-inch-lcd/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/10/18/engadget-hd-review-olevia-542i-42-inch-lcd/</guid><description><![CDATA[I own the Westy 42w2 and I absolutely love it.

Just fyi, olevia is rolling out 1080p's as well soon in their 7 series 42 and 47inch lcds, and 5 series lcos rptv. the 7 series will include silicon optix chipsets (they are the guys that designed the HQV standard) and are still very very bang for the buck oriented. Also, the original 42" LT42HVi olevia goes for a very low $1200ish compared to the 15-1800 westy's ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[J]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 19th 2006 11:07AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Engadget HD Review: Olevia 542i 42-inch LCD]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/10/18/engadget-hd-review-olevia-542i-42-inch-lcd/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/10/18/engadget-hd-review-olevia-542i-42-inch-lcd/</guid><description><![CDATA[No comments on how this unit plays standand definition???  Since they will never figure out how to play standard definition (resolution my friends), I will never buy an LCD TV.  Ok, never is to strong.  How about when 95% of shows are HD, which is almost the same as never. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[horngreen]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 22nd 2006 8:47PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Engadget HD Review: Olevia 542i 42-inch LCD]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/10/18/engadget-hd-review-olevia-542i-42-inch-lcd/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/10/18/engadget-hd-review-olevia-542i-42-inch-lcd/</guid><description><![CDATA[Hey horngreen, I have a Olevia LCD and a hd receiver, the SD picture is great with the digital signal.

All I can say is, what a bargain.  The street prices on these units especially during the holidays make this a no brainer.  I was hesitant to buy an "Unknown", but my worries were gone after I unpacked and powered up the unit for my first time at home.  I have not had a single issue with this unit, and I recommend them to anybody I know that is in the market for a LCD.  I am using the HDMI, Component, and SVGA hookups, all perform flawlessly.  Hope this helps!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Knight]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 8th 2006 11:23AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Engadget HD Review: Olevia 542i 42-inch LCD]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/10/18/engadget-hd-review-olevia-542i-42-inch-lcd/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/10/18/engadget-hd-review-olevia-542i-42-inch-lcd/</guid><description><![CDATA[I bought a 542I from Microcenter on Black-Friday.

The only things that i do not like about the unit is the TFT screen.  I really wish it had glass over the TFT for eaisier cleaning. The other thing that i do not like is when you are using the pip function you and want to turn off the pip you have to scroll through imputs to do so. The good thing about the TFT screen is there is no glare issues but it is harder to clean than glass.  Other than that i am very satisfied with the 542i picture and overall quality. Good buy for the money.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[max]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 30th 2006 4:30PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Engadget HD Review: Olevia 542i 42-inch LCD]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/10/18/engadget-hd-review-olevia-542i-42-inch-lcd/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/10/18/engadget-hd-review-olevia-542i-42-inch-lcd/</guid><description><![CDATA[go to walletbuddy.com  they have a code, i think " TGTSAVE3 " that will save you 10% off of this tv.  you buy it from target.  right now its marked down to $1199.99 take another $120 off (10%) and add free shipping.  i jumped on it.  for the price the features, the removable speakers, and the firmware updates seemed to make it a good buy for me.  $1144.79 to my door.  xmas came early for me!!!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[jbird]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 7th 2006 2:33PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
