Worked Great until It Didn'tNovember 26, 2008 The TV worked great for 1 year and 1 week. Then it stopped working altogether. It is almost like it is programmed to last until the warranty period is out and then quit, forcing another purchase. Well, Westinghouse won't get my money again. Unbelievable.

GOOD -- PRICE, BI-PLATFORMED FOR TV AND COMPUTER BAD -- NOT TRUE 16:9 (16:10), ACCESS TO DIGITAL QAM DIFFICULT, VIDEO AND AUDIO MEDIOCRE
For a cheap utility hdtv that can double as a vga plugged computer screen (or visaversa) as in a home office, this screen is a really good deal for the money. However pix and audio quality only mediorce and the viewing range on the lcd limited.
16:10 slightly distorts hdtv pix, elongating images by 10%.
CAUTION: You can not key-in digital channels directly on the remote, even though it has a dot key. The only access to Qam digital is via on screen menu and then you can only access channels directly through the onscreen programming guide. Lots of key strokes. NOTE QAM is important, since it allows access to local HDVD channels without renting a box from cable or satellite.
Very disappointedAugust 9, 2008 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
On the positive side: the image is excellent, the system supports a multitude of inputs, the analog tuner works perfectly.
On the negative side: the QAM tuner and the computer that selects the detected stations via the remote are flawed. I connected this TV to my cable without the cable box to watch the clear-QAM digital stations from my cable provider. Autoscan found all of them. But trying to use the remote to select the detected channels are so frustrating that I just stopped trying to use the digital tuner. As I installed two of these TVs and both had the identical problems, I suspect that there is a serious design flaw.
If your purpose for this TV is as a PC monitor, for connection to an antenna, for connection to a DVD or for connection to a cable box (either using the analog output [which makes no sense] or using the digital connections) this might be very acceptable. However, if your application is to use the TV to tune QAM signals, this is not the TV for you.
Westinghouse's tech support was so poorly trained that they did not even know what a QAM tuner was for.
Have returned mine. Proceed corefully.
nice hdtvJune 26, 2008 this is a great hdtv and i can hook it up to my pc to this is great for the money must buy!!!
Great TVJune 25, 2008 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
Pros: + Great image quality (HDTV quality), screen also coated with anti-reflective coating (which means that it doesn't reflect light from the background that much, & thus you the screen is not that shiny) + Many ports (HDMI, VGA etc), can be used as a computer screen + Ultra portable + DTV, no digital to analog converter required (Feb 17, 2009 transition to DTV in the USA). + Really good for its price + Setting up very easy (I also find using its remote control very easy : for eg, while watching DTV, I can change the language, include closed captioning, and check the programming guide. + Included in the box: VGA cable to connect this TV to your computer and another one to transfer sound from your computer to the TV speakers. I use my laptop as a DVD player with this TV.
Cons: - Found only one: I don't find the sound quality that superb. To my ears, the sound sounds as if it is coming from a pair of sound blasters enclosed within a box that is partly open. That is, the sound is kind of muffled - my laptop sound blasters output a much better sound than this HDTV. However, you can always attach your own sound system to this TV to get a better sound.
