Amazon.com Product Description
Slender and stately, Panasonic's PT-47WX53 projection television makes a powerful statement for high quality, rich features, and affordable pricing. The 47-inch set's broad HDTV/EDTV display capability (1080i, 480p) lets you view high-definition or enhanced-definition TV programming from an optional DTV set-top box with an ATSC receiver or from a progressive-scan DVD player. The set's wide, 0.52 mm fine-pitch screen is configured in a 16:9 aspect ratio, the standard for HDTV broadcasts as well as for widescreen DVD movies.

Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional video picture, giving you higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts. Panasonic's Progressive Cinema Scan (3:2 pulldown) provides faithful reproduction of film-based materials. DVD mastering introduces a common distortion when adjusting 24 frames-per-second movies to 30 fps video; Progressive Cinema Scan digitally corrects this distortion, removing the redundant information to display a film-frame-accurate picture.

Ten-bit A/D image processing boosts conventional grayscale gradations by a factor of four, producing four times as many shades of black and white and a bright picture that closely resembles the original analog source material. A progressive-scan up-converter makes horizontal scan lines virtually invisible.

A motion-adaptive 3D-Y/C digital comb filter displays bright colors and action scenes with incredible clarity by minimizing the "color rainbow effect" in closely spaced patterns, compensating for the motion that occurs between fields. Included 10-bit, 60 MHz analog-to-digital image processing boosts conventional grayscale from 256 to 1,024, delivering four times as many shades of black and white.

Digital velocity-modulated scanning improves definition at picture edges, creating sharper images by slowing the CRT (cathode-ray tube) beam's horizontal scanning during demanding work--say, when rendering transitions from light to dark parts of an image--and speeding it up when scanning easily rendered sections, like broad dark areas.

Two-tuner picture-in-picture with split-screen display lets you view two programs at once by dividing the screen in half down the middle. Each program is shown at full height, with one program on the left side and the other on the right. PIP benefits from 8-bit processing, making the inset nearly as crisp as the main picture. The inset picture is scalable in size, from .0625x to .25x.

For connections, the set offers four composite-video inputs, including one in front for easy hookup of a camcorder or gaming console. There are three S-video inputs (including one in front) and two sets of component-video inputs. The TV is also equipped with a direct digital DVI (Digital Visual Interface) connection with HDCP copy protection.

Other features include horizontal and vertical edge correction, Artificial Intelligence Picture Control (continuously monitors signal conditions to maintain high contrast), Artificial Intelligence Sound (minimizes variances in sound level), video noise reduction (compares individual pixels of two consecutive fields, then removes noise), BBE High Definition Sound (improves speech intelligibility and restores musical dynamic range), nine-point user convergence capability, an eye-catching 3-D on-screen menu system, and a light-disk remote control.

Channel banner captures information transmitted with each program--such as station identification and V-chip ratings--and places it onscreen in a semi-transparent banner. An easy-to-clean screen shield protects the screen from nicks, scratches, and fingerprints.

Good Case, Stylish but may cause scratches..., .......2006-07-04

The case arrived looking as good as it did in the pictures. I thought it looked stylish/retro. I read from the other reviews there were scratches caused mainly the space above the click wheel and below the screen.

I checked the stitching before placing my 30GB video iPod in. The stitchings around the border were soft. But when I felt the stitchings around the click wheel hole I can see why there were alot of complaints of ipod scratching around there. The sitchings were a bit more rough aound the click wheel than it is around the screen. But from other reviews i have read, there were no scratches from long term use of the case.

But i have nothing to worry about because I have kept the plastic adhesive sheet that came with the iPod. So I suggest to those who want to be cautious, try buying the adhesive protective sheet if you dont have it or you could just wrap your iPod in saran wrap.

After just taking my iPod out it left some sticky residue on the back, ugh, took me forever to rub it off the edges but it still left some residue. I checked on the inside, on the sides with in the case there is a lining of glue...figures.
But its still a good case. Guess you just have to fully cover your ipod front and back before putting it in.
