I should first note that I am no expert on television sets, and was more than a little confused by all the different technologies out on the marketplace. After some research, and a little help from a local home theater company, I settled on this TV. If 13" of depth isn't an issue for your application, this TV offers picture quality on par with the more expensive plasmas and lcds. Couldn't be happier with my purchase!
UPDATE:
I have since discovered the issue with the HDMI connections that others are reporting.

The previous reviews are similar to mine. All one has to do is watch the Discovery HD Theater and immediately they will realize what a great TV it is, but also the picture quality is sharp,color is beautiful and the TV is not 300 pounds in weight. I enjoy my 42" Samsung DLP HDTV WAY MORE than I ever realized possible.

We needed a bigger TV and the 42" Samsung DLP was right up our alley. It's not so big that it takes up the entire room, but big enough that we don't have to squint.
It is especially phenomenal for viewing DVD's. Using the HDMI input and surround sound results in a movie-theater quality experience.
All we need now is for more broadcasters to use HD technology.

Sorry, I can only give "half" a review now, so I will keep this review short. My first bad decision was to purchase any HDTV before I had a digital signal. What stores or manufacturers won't tell you is that the analog picture is surprisingly poor; not as good as your old tv picture. Consumer Reports will back this up with the black circle ratings (poorest quality) for the best of plasma, LCD, and DLP hdtvs, but I received that info a day later. I owned the Samsung 42" hdtv for just one day and returned it to BestBuy ( they were running a special with a price very close to Amazon's) and may buy later this year after I get digital service (and a probable Samsung hdtv price drop). So I am collecting digital service prices (cable and satellite), including Verizon's Fios cable that is just being built in my area. I currently have Comcast cable analog, and appreciate the new competition from other digital providers.

WOW! This TV is fantastic. Easy to setup, lightest TV I'd ever owned, great picture...and the best thing of all...a super suprise:
We get all the local channels in HD through our rabbit ears. Amazing! We were gunna get digital cable but no need to now! The best stuff is on the local channels anyhow. We had no idea that the local channels were broadcast in HD for free.
The good news about HD channels you either get a perfect picture or no picture at all (unlike analog channels)
This TV also allows you to pull local channels in from an antenna and still pull in other channels with cable.
--update: This is a great TV, it only has 720, not full HD. It takes a little time to warm up to full brightness nowadays. I have become a fan of Samsung and may get one of their newer LCD panels next...
