Product Description
The XV645 series combines the REGZA Engine (PixelPure 5G & Resolution+) with ClearFrame 120Hz for superior picture quality, and adds the bottom Deep Lagoon design for an appearance that also stands out from the pack. ClearFrame 120Hz, doubles the video frames from 60 per second to 120 per second to reduce any motion blur that could be caused by fast action video. By using advanced motion vector frame interpolation, it improves picture clarity without affecting picture brightness or adding flicker. For those that prefer a more film-like picture, there is also a 5:5 Pull-Down option available. Resolution+, some video content is in high definition (HD), but some is still in standard Definition (SD). However, REGZA virtually levels the content playing field with Resolution+. Resolution+ is super resolution technology that upconverts and enhances 480i, 480p, and even 720p content to create a sharper, more detailed picture. With REGZA and Resolution+ all of your standard DVDs, SD TV channels, camcorder videos, and even SD video games will feel like HD. AutoView, a TV picture must be bright enough for high contrast viewing during the day, but not so bright that it causes eye strain at night. To achieve this, REGZA offers AutoView. This system combines an ambient room light sensor and advanced algorithms that monitor the incoming video signal. AutoView can automatically control the TV picture settings to produce the ideal picture in any room lighting condition. Bottom Deep Lagoon Design, inspired by nature and reminiscent of sand disappearing below the surface of calm shores, the Deep Lagoon design adds a unique feeling of character and depth to flat panel TV. AutoView Automatic Picture Adjustment ColorMaster Wide Color Enhancer DynaLight Dynamic Backlight Control for Deep Black Levels Gaming Mode for Fast Game Controller Response 3 HDMI Digital Inputs with REGZA-LINK High-Res PC

So far this set has very pleasing. My only complaint is the clunky remote control which has a physical switch to change modes (TV, Cable/Sat, AV1, AV2). The set has 3 HDMI inputs which is nice though many in this price range seem to have 4.
During initial set-up the set asks a few questions most of which are basic like if the set will be connected to antenna or cable before automatically scanning and adding channels. The first question though is unusual. It prompts for whether the set will be used in a home or as a store display. Selecting home reduces the backlight to 50% power though this can be adjusted later through the video configuration menu.
The set also features advances picture controls many of which I have not had time adjust but should provide enough control to satisfy any one who considers themselves a video guru. Also this TV features basic audio controls (treble bass & balance) as well as features like stable sound, voice enhancing, and bass boost so the control over audio is pleasing.
I chose this set for two reasons. I have a standard-def Toshiba set that I've always liked the picture on and the Toshiba HDTV's don't seem to create (or maybe they have the ability to correct) some artifacts on some HD content.
I was considering another brand, but I had an opportunity to watch Planet Earth on a set with spec's similar to this one and noticed the other brand displayed artifacts when a subject (bird) was moving rapidly across a solid color field (sky). I watched the same clip on an older Toshiba Regza model a member of my family owned and didn't see the artifacts so I chose to stick with Toshiba and have noticed no artifacts on similar video with this set.
Bottom line: I'm very pleased with this TV

I just got this TV a few days ago. I don't watch much television, only a movie now and then, LOST, and a few subtitled anime shows I download a few days after they air in Japan. I bought this mostly to be my PC monitor for games, internet, and photoshop art.
I used a DVI-D to HDMI cable to connect it, however, I couldn't use it in any widescreen resolution but 1280x720. 1600x1200 was the best resolution I could get, but that wasn't widescreen. It was only a gpu drivers issue, and a quick update of the drivers and Catalyst Control Center was enough to take care of the problem. Now I'm running 1920x1080 in Windows, which is awesome on this display. World of Warcraft on max graphics settings in 1080p looks amazing. The colors and the blacks just pop! I can't wait to try out a newer game with more cutting edge graphics!
I highly recommend this TV for anyone who wants a 40" PC display. To think I almost spent 300 dollars more for a similar Sony or Samsung. As long as this thing lasts, this TV is way better than I could have imagined and I think it was absolutely the right choice amongst my options.
Other things to note-
To be honest, the sound might not blow your socks off, but it's solid and clear. The Sony and Samsung cases/frames look better IMO too, but that's purely cosmetic.
Picture is surprisingly good with normal non HD cable in 480.

My choices in a 40" TV narrowed down to this set or the equivalent Samsung. The Samsungs were generally rated better then the Toshiba, but the price was also quite a bit higher.
Picture quality on this set is amazing. The sound is decent, though nothing to write home about. I hooked up a a fairly cheap home theatre surround sound system to use while watching a movie, but for normal TV, the built in sound from the Toshiba is acceptable.
The only issue I had with the TV, was that it apparantly gives off some IR signals that interfere with the remote control from Direct TV. The direct tv reciever did not respond to the remote control when the tv went to screensaver mode. Even though I could not believe this was the problem, I set the Dirct TV remote to work in RF mode (very easy to do actually!!) and everything worked perfectly. This is a problem with LCD TV's in general, not just Toshiba. The only other issue I have is that occasionally the sound sounds garbled, in which case i turn the tv off and then right back on..problem goes away. This may happen once every two or three weeks, and is not really an issue.
To summarize, I'm VERY pleased with this set and glad I saved the few hundred dollars over the Samsung set.
