Wow, sorry it took me so long to answer this. I must not have seen it. That is a comparable model to the TV that I have. I have loved it too. It is a great price for the TV as well.

So I bought a new TV at Fry's tonight. Mitsubishi WD-65734 DLP. 65 inches and 1080p. The picture quality is OUTSTANDING! Truly one of the best pictures I've ever seen. Got the five year warranty on this one and if they need to repair it, they do it on-site and if it has to be taken in for service, they give me a loaner TV of the same level.
Best part about it, 500 days no payments, no interest. That goes for all Mits TVs there.
HOWEVER...it has a problem and I'll either have to have it repaired immediately or have them replace it. On the left hand side, on any type of pan, there's a "crease" and the image pulls like a fun-house mirror. We noticed it first on a basketball game. It is about 3/4 the way in from the left hand side. I thought it might be only because of the fast pan in basketball, but I was watching a fireworks show in HD and a very, very slow pan made a rock wall expand out. Then it did it the same way on a bridge...it looked like the bridge was growing longer. Really weird. It isn't a pincushioning issue, and it only happens in that same spot, every time. I'll probably end up having them replace the unit entirely. I couldn't find this issue on the AVS forums and everyone seems to really love the TV other than a whirring issue that some people have. I don't have it (it does make sound cooling, but it is so not noticable unless it is dead silent in the house.
The TV has 4 HDMI inputs, one on the front, and three component inputs (one on the front). I'll be able to hook up my xbox 360directly (which I couldn't do on my old hitachi), as well as my old PS2 and my upcoming Wii (the latter two on the standard jacks, not component). Then I can ditch the switcher device I have which is kind of a pain in the ass.
Really happy with the new TV, even with the problem that will get fixed. It's just got amazing picture quality.
At just under 3K with tax and the 5 year warranty, and no payments until early 2009, (though I'll have it paid off before it comes due) I'm very happy.
DDogg - are you still liking this tv? I'm trying to decided between this and a 58" plasma with 720p. I have a pretty big family room and sit 16ft back, so I'm thinking the bigger the better.

Yeah man, I love this tv. The picture is so damn sharp and amazing.
I have been incredibly happy with this purchase. Great, great set.
