        I've had this HDTV for about a month now and no complaints at all. It's placed in the rec room and used most often with Xbox. Provides crisp and clear picture. Plenty of source inputs, allowing additional hook-up of FiOS, DVD and even VCR. iPod dock comes in handy and with stereo connection sound is great. Definitely recommend!

        This Panasonic LCD TV has a good picture and nice remote with large buttons. The included iPod dock is great. The only problem I have is with the sound. I have to turn the volume up pretty loud. I intend to connect the digital audio out to a home theater sound sytem to overcome that problem. All in all a good buy.

          Comments about Panasonic VIERA TC-L26X1 26" 720p LCD TV:

          I LOVE this TV! I bought it for my bedroom so I could watch the olympics while lying in bed. It was great watching the athletes straining for gold on the frozen tundra while I was in supine splendor under the comforter. It was very easy to set up and connect. The iPod dock is very cool and also easy to use. It's great to control the iPod with the TV remote. The TV has a great picture and with an HDMI cable it easily synced with the DVD player and I can use one remote for both. Also, for the price I thought it was a great deal.

                I use it in the bedroom, and have it connected to a Sony BlueRay player and a Sony receiver via the HDMI cable and a fiber optic cable. The sound is great through the receiver! (must use optical hookup) Very easy setup (almost none) and it is great to be able to control an iPod through the remote control and see all the songlists, etc. on the screen. Very pleased- I'll probably order another in the the 32" size for another room.

                This is a really great idea.
                I personally prefer music to tv. But my kids like tv. You got the best of both worlds.
                I hook up my Ipod and enjoy the rich sound.
                They enjoy the TV.
                It's easy to use and you can entertain yours friends hooking up your camera picture card and viewing your pictures.

                Replaced old 21" in study. Fits perfectly. Great picture and sound. Have yet to try a SD card but that was the tiebreaker over Sony.

                We use this TV in our kitchen by the dining area. Picture quality is great, enjoy that it can be viewed from an angle, and also that I can see it clearly from a distance. No complaints on sound quality. I chose this TV because of the ability to insert digital camera SD memory stick. Now we can EASILY view pictures without crowding around a small monitor or needing cables. Would definitely recommend this TV.
