"Great TV for sharing Music, Pictures and Videos"
Pros: Fast and Easy to use (once setup)
Cons: Known issue with Media Player 11
Summary: The TV works great. It connected right to my network with no problems. The HD picture is outstanding. It comes with a $20 gift card for CinemaNow which allows you to download movies instantly and watch them on your computer or TV.
It is limited to the Internet by HP websites and Windows Media Player 11. I would have liked to have full Internet access along with wireless keyboard and mouse, but I knew it did not have that when I purchased the TV. The Media Player on the TV is quick except for when searching through 30,000 songs. It also only shows about 12 songs per page. The work around is creating playlist on your computer and playing that from the TV.
The only other issue is that you have to install Media Player 11 on your computer and if you have XP Media Edition there are known issues with MP11. It took me a couple of days, but I was able to find the fix. A simple .dll file called ?wmvdmoe.dll? (you can do a search on Google to find it). Once that was installed everything worked like a champ. The picture is great, the wireless connection that is coming from the other side of the house is fast, and I would recommend this TV to anyone with a lot of music, pictures or videos on their computer.
