You're kidding right? The Ölevia brand has been getting great reviews as is Sceptre and Westinghouse. So what if its not a Sonineerosonic? At least Ölevia and the like are priced without insult to the consumer's intelligence.
@ Ken: Olevia is an OK brand. But don't even think of comparison to Sony Bravia, Pioneer Elite Plasma, Panasonic or even Sharp and Samsung. (Pioneer does not make LCD HDTVs).
Oh, and I doubt you will find Syntax-Brillian anywhere but through "an authorized" dealer. Olevia, Sceptre and Westinghouse are all discounted through most online sellers.
I own an Olivia, and it had to have its MB replaced (bad audio) and after 6 months, was replaced by a model half it's price. Nice.
Amazing! The first plug for an LCD HDTV that doesn't mention Contrast Ratio, refresh rate or improved black levels!
My original comment was simply about brand awareness: the Syntax-Brillian brand is so low profile that it could limbo dance under a Lotus Elise. I have no opinion on the quality of their products or the Olevia brand...
“An engineer explained to us that hundreds of ear impressions were gathered in the name of research, and while each one obviously boasted its own unique shape and size, one single characteristic remained uniform across the board: the entrance into the ear canal is not a perfect circle, it's an oval.”

Yep, play the Olevia lottery to see if the expensive TV you buy is POS. Don't even get me started on technical "support".
No thanks!
I bought an Olevia LCD at Circuit City.
And Westinghouse is carried by BestBuy.
