Does anyone bought this model? Can comment about its quality?
Does it still have banding issues?
Is it better than sony lcd tvs? i heard sony lcds have very deep black so much so that night scenes are too dark. is sony lcds picture quality better than sharp? i can't find a similar spec sony lcds at similar price points. the feature i'm looking for is 100hz. so far sony W series does not have 100Hz.
can't decide whether to get sharp or sony as both have amazing picture quality. i guess sharp is the better choice as the price is right with 100Hz and deep color. If the picture quality is better or same as sony lcds, there will be no more questions as to which brand i will buy.

does this A77 model have xv colour? the spec page did say it have deep colour but not xv colour. both are different and not the same. deep colour is color space while xv color is color gamut. such expensive and top of the line lcd tvs should have both features. can anyone confirm? anyone bought this tv?

AFAIK, 100hz is bullshit. You might see some difference in Sony's 200Hz Motionflow though..but that cost a bomb.
I use a Sharp btw, HD Ready with 100Hz thingy...It's a great TV but the 100Hz thingy is marketing gimmick.

I use an A77.
The black levels aren't very good though.
However, SD signals are excellent on the 42A77, making it ideal for locals, as most of us play videos from SD sources most of the time anyway.

i think no need to pay by AMEX. Cash or any credit card will get it for RM3499 but for limited time and units. They will revised the price until the promotion units sold, then back to RM3999.

Haven't negotiate with them yet..probably can get it cheaper...maybe RM3400..
