    Good Points: THEY ARE GREAT FOR SAT PICTURES AND DVD'S, BUT UNLESS YOU HAVE A BRILLIANT SIGNAL FROM THE TV-TRANSMITTER, THE TV PICTURE IS ALWAYS A DISSAPOINTMENT!

    Bad Points: I FOUND MY AMATEUR RADIO GEAR TO BE WIPED OUT BY THE SWITCH MODE POWER SUPPLY RACKET, THE PSU CANNOT BE TO EU - STANDARD - THIS ONE IS DUE TO GO IN THE WORKSHOP TO GET IT REMIDIED. IF THEY FAIL TO REMEDY THE PSU NOISE, WHICH IS HORREDOUS ON MY RADIO GEAR, I'LL BE LOOKING FOR A REFUND! I'D BUY LCD TV IN FUTURE, AS THE REAR PROJECTION IS OLD TECHNOLOGY, AND LCD IS RECCOMMENDED. DOESN'T CAUSE NOISE TO RADIO GEAR, SWITCH MODE POWER SUPPLIES ARE THE DEATH NAIL TO HF-HAM RADIO GEAR. TOSHIBA AREN'T AWARE OF THIS IT SEEMS.

    General comments: MY OPINION THEN OF THE TOSHIBA 42 INCH REAR PROJECTION. OLD TECHNOLOGY, AND THAT'S WHY THEY HAVE DROPPED FROM £999.99 TO £699.00. OK IF YOU JUST WANT TO WATCH DVD'S OR PERFECT SATELLITE PICTURES, BUT TV PICS WILL ALWAYS DISSAPOINT, UNLESS YOUR TV SIGNAL IS PERFECT! THE 42 INCH SCREEN WILL HIGHLIGHT ANY IMPERFECTIONS, AND YOU WILL HAVE DOUBTS WHY YOU EVER PURCHASED REAR PROJECTION .

    An excellent performer, particularly on DVD, laserdisc, Freeview and Digital Satellite TV. Not so good on terrestrial analogue. That apart, the digital convegence board failed on mine 2 weeks after the warranty expired. £176 repair bill. Not so good. And so soon.

    I paid £2400 when this Toshiba 42PW23P Rear Projection Television came out in 2001. It hurts when I see what they cost now, they are an absolute bargain. But I dont regret paying for it - its been worth it over the last 30 months. Displays in shops actually do projection tvs a big dis-service since they usually look pale and dim. This is purely down to the viewing angle, as you look down on it in the shop from close proximity. Once its in your room and you are sitting in your chair the co ...

    I've only had my Toshiba 42PW23P Rear Projection Television for a few days and its going back to where it came from! Personally I'd say to anyone thinking of buying one of these types of TV's.........Be careful and make sure that you have exhausted your research. I'm still researching and am now seriously considering a Sony Rear Projection instead and its got to be 100hz for better clarity and reduced flickering. Another point you need to remember is that with this particular Toshiba model , th ...

    My one of these beauties arrived a couple of days ago, and I'm in love. Straight out of the box, installation is a doddle and the remote is simple and easy to navigate. The unit itself is fairly tall without the cabinet and sits nicely at head-height if you're sitting on your sofa. In terms of its depth, it's a good bit thinner than my old 28" widescreen telly that the Tosh is replacing. Once up and running, you notice straight away what a superb picture you get from the TV; after all the wa ...

    This was my first foray into rear projection televisions, I almost bought a cheap plasma but I knew it would be a waste. I replaces a 32" CRT set. Initially Toshiba looked HUGE in my living room, but a couple of days viewing and I was pretty used to it. My seating position is only about 7 feet from the screet and would benefit from being a few feet further back thanks to seeing a few screen artefacts. I won't comment on the sound of the set, I don't use it thanks to having an external sur ...
