I'd care if this wasn't the worst movie of 2009.
If you can't beat 'em, join 'em. :)
Is there a 1.1% margin of error?
This is nothing new. In Hong Kong, Samsung LCD's have been on the buses here for over 5 years. They mostly show advertising for products, movie trailers (only thing I like to see) and some variety show stuff.
I have this exactly model running through my condo and I push 3GB+ HD files from my bedroom to my plasma tv (hooked up to a Popcorn Hour A-100) in the living room with no problems whatsoever. Sluggish? Hardly. Frame drops? Maybe only 2% of the time.

It should be noted, that just because it says 200Mbps it won't push that much since the Ethernet ports are only 10/100 hence only 100Mbps TOPS.

But still a GREAT powerline product, highly recommended.
I have 65" and 42" Panasonic Plasmas and I am the happiest person in the world with these televisions. I did a side-by-side comparison of a 40" Sony XBR and 42" Panasonic Plasma 800 models, was allowed to calibrate them myself and I have to admit they looked very similar but I had to give the edge to the Panasonic. The PQ just felt much more natural to my eyes than the Sony LCD did. I've watched plenty of programming with permanent TV logos and news tickers but have never had a burn in issue, EVER. Heck I'm even planning to buy another 42" Panasonic plasma for my bedroom. So long as Panasonic keeps making these amazing panels, I don't care if everyone else dumps plasma, more for Panasonic and me :D.
UGH! Hong Kong has the CRAPPIEST selection of HD content. Although this HD VOD may help a little, the outrageous prices by NOW-TV are still there and they need to start offering HD bundle packages. US$6.50 per HD channel, ya I think I'll PASS!
Content is king. Releasing titles like STREET FIGHTER aren't exactly going to make blu-ray popular with the consumers :p lol
If the Olympics weren't in HD, odds are I wouldn't be watching them as much as I am.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a pair of quality headphones that aren't seemingly made of glass. I'm an avid BMXer which causes me to frequently bash on any type of technology that joins me for my daily riding. I've been through the higher quality headsets in the Skullcandy line as these are supposed to be built for "abuse," which is laughable. I cant wear earbuds or canal buds, as my large ears seem to have a repelling property upon anything that sits in them. Wired or Bluetooth doesn't really matter, but I need something that can hold up to taking a few hits every now and again. I'm trying to keep 'em under $150. Thanks!"
