I bought this TV in Dec 2005 as one of the first 1080p sets available. Used it up until last year, when I wanted to upgrade to something bigger and thinner. This model suffered from a pretty nasty manufacturing defect though, and that's that the optical block started to fail after a while and give a green tint to the picture. This TV got used a LOT over the last 7 years, and was just starting to get this problem when I upgraded it. It's not near as bad as other examples I've seen though, and who knows, there might be a way to get in there and fix it. Pictures show the extent of the colour problem on this set. Bulb was replaced in Jan 2011, so it should be good for a while (first replacement since the original). Anyway, looking to get rid of it and clear up some space, so make me an offer.
