Summary: Good Product.
Comment: I purchased the Mitsubishi brand TV after carefully doing some research on DLP type TV's. I was impressed from the start. I purchased a 62inch set in mid 2005 and had no problems for 2 years.
When I did have a problem it was the lamp ($210.00) Shortly after that the Ballast went. $300 for part and $280 Labor.
I can only say that make sure you purchase the extended warranty.
I still like their TV's and would purchase another one.
