Opinions: Phillips 42" 1080p 120 Hz w/Blu-Ray Player for $1K

http://www.costco.com/Browse/Product.aspx?Prodid=11312788&whse=BC&Ne=5000000+4000000&eCat=BC|79|2341&N=4001374%205000014&Mo=37&No =5&Nr=P_CatalogName:BC&Ns=P_Price|1||P_SignDesc1&Sp=C

I'm seriously thinking about getting this TV. It has a 2ms Response Time, 120 Hz, 1080p display. The Blu-Ray player makes it a sweeter deal. It has to better than Vizio right?

This looks like the avsforum thread for it:

One huge word of caution before you go there. For the most part, those people are the pickiest in the world. I think if you read any thread about any TV, you'd get the impression that there's a million defects with every TV.

Anyway, I like it, but did I read somewhere that Phillips is getting out of the TV market?

Only thing that I don't get is 24fps. From the list, it can't accept a 24fps input, which is really one of the big reasons for having a 120hz TV. Seems a little odd.

My brother got this http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...pf_rd_i=507846 and it's amazingly clear and sharp when the signal doesn't drop. So anything I get compared to that might fall short.

Thanks for the link. Costco has the wrong model number. They switched the last two numbers around.
