I think my friend has one. It doesn't do 1:1 through HDMI. That means it takes a section of the 1920x1080 HDTV or computer image and stretches and interpolates it to the display's 1920x1080 pixels... for no reason. Might as well buy a 1366x768 TV.
Sony TVs do 1:1.
Are you referring to the Samsung LN-S4695D? If so, what problems are there with it?
There aren't any REAL problems with it. It just doesn't do 1:1 pixel mapping of 1080p over HDMI. There is some overscan. This is the case for the 40/46 inch models, but apparently not for the newely released 52 incher.

I'm pretty sure mercanucaribe is talking about the overscan that the samsung does over HDMI, but I'm not 100% sure.

..looks a lot like the Bravia 46". Sony and Samsung are in collusion in the LCD biz.
