This is the third Samsung HDTV I've purchased from Amazon -- one DLP and two LCDs.
First, a word about getting your large TV from Amazon. In all three cases, the TV arrived on the scheduled date or earlier, with no damage. I'm not sure how the long-range shipping was handled, but the final delivery was handled by a local trucking company that was friendly, courteous, and right on time. They even offered to unbox the unit. Because of Amazon's excellent price and delivery, I'd recommend them to anyone shopping for an HDTV.
Second, regarding Samsung, I've become a huge fan of their products. In addition to the three HDTVs, my home has two Samsung double-door refrigerators that replaced aging Subzero units at a much lower price and (I believe) higher quality. I also have a couple of Samsung computer monitors.
Like the other Samsung TVs, the 37-inch LN37A550 has an excellent picture, a good assortment of inputs including 3 HDMI and a VGA port. It also supports the CEC protocol, which can simplify integration with other CEC-compatible products such as home theater systems and DVD players. Its weak point is the speakers, but that's not unusual for any LCD TV due to the limitations of the flat panel form factor. Fortunately, the market abounds with inexpensive sound systems, including several from Samsung that support CEC.

I bought one of these TVs earlier in 2008 for myself. Great picture and easy to use. This is a 60 hrz machine, but I do not notice much, if any blurring of the picture during fast action. Not sure it would be worth the extra money to go to a 120 hrz machine. Sound from the speakers is only average quality, but I hooked the TV up to a theatre sound system which works great.
I liked the TV so much that I recommended it to my sister in law. She bought one through Amazon and is very happy with it. I like to purchase direct from Amazon.com whenever possible. Never had a problem and I have purchased a number of items from them. Delivery is prompt and often included in the price. Saving sales tax is also nice.

This is our third Samsung. The first was a 32" for use in our bedroom.The second was bought for our kitchen (the only unit that I could find in white). When our daughter got married we decided to give them an HDTV as a wedding gift. Since we were very happy with the two previous sets purchased- we opted for another Samsung. Our daughter is happy with her set too. All three sets are uniform in performance, sharp with very good sound and true color. Free shipping was a nice bonus.

The TV was delivered just last week with Amazon's White Glove service. The delivery guy unpacked the box and set up the TV and even offered to remove all of the packaging! All of this at NO charge from Amazon.
This is our 2nd Samsung. We also have two Sharp LCDs. I picked the Samsung based on Consumer Reports reviews. The TV is outstanding and just the right size for our "adult" den. We did not want a TV to over power the room and the 37" is perfect. I researched all of the Samsung different models before choosing the 550. The 550 gives the right balance of features and price. Amazon's price beat Circuit City's "going out of business" price by over a $100!

TV is great but the list price is not $1199. Samsung has it listed at 1099.99 on their home page. So recalculate your savings
