    I just got this T.V. last week and am very satisfied with it. We looked at a 50″ Samsung, but to me this T.V had a better picture. Maybe the Samsung just needed adjusting. This is the second Vizio that I bought bought in the last year. Both have great pictures. I would recommend them to anyone.

    We just bought the VT470M and the picture is great. I had some sales person tell me that VIISIO uses the same displays as Samsung only last years technology. Believe he was disturbed that Visio is 30% less in price as the Panasonic and Sony models with the same performance and they were not carried in his store. I would do it again and recommend everyone consider a Vizio.

    It is real nice that Mr. William Wang of Vizio has the same business foresight of Sam Walton that selling quality products at affordable price is better than huge profit with less sales.
    I have bought 3 Vizio TVs (different sizes) and am happy about my choice.
