The Bottom Line	Although the LED-powered Samsung HL-S5679W does a lot of things right, its picture quality isn't up to the standards set by its high price.	Samsung's HL61A750 61-inch rear-projection HDTV delivers excellent overall picture quality, and, compared to flat-panel options, it's a real bargain.	Although we couldn't quite ignore its uneven screen uniformity, the Samsung HL-T5687S still makes a compelling alternative to flat-screen wallet-busters at this size.	CNET did not review the Samsung HL67A750, but we did review a smaller model in the series.	The Mitsubishi WD-65735 offers plenty of screen for the buck, compact styling, and numerous connections, but its picture quality doesn't match that of the competition.
