Summary: GET AN EXTENDED WARRANTY or pay the price.
Comment: I wish I knew before I bought this TV for my dad. I think I paid $799 for it just 15 months ago and the lamp has to be replaced. Until this point I was happy with Toshiba products(I have a 42" LCD and two HD-DVD players) but now...How can you justify a TV that costs $1000 retail having to have a $200 part every year? Of course the warranty expired 3 months ago. An extended warranty may have covered the new bulb but you have to make sure, for $50 bucks or so the 2 year warranty would cover 2 bulbs at this rate and save about $400.

Summary: DLP Lamp Review
Comment: I have a Toshiba 42HM66 Model # TV. We like the picture quality of the television but the sound is lacking - can't increase the way you want. The one major problem is we have had it 13 months now - and have to change the DLP Lamp - which costs over $300. This television we figure has about 2800 hours of usage on it. These lamps are advertised usage over 3000 hours - that's so false!!! I am so upset and know that i have to purchase a new lamp every year - i think not - I think i am going to sell this television and buy a SONY!!!! oh yeah - the customer support ith toshiba was no help either - good luck!

Summary: DLP TAX
Comment: Be prepared to pay the "DLP Tax" annually. That is one lamp each year. Toshiba knows that these lamps will not run 6-8000 Hrs. 2000-3000 is normal. I have spoken to 3 different Toshiba Authorized repairs centers and hey all verify that a year is the average lifespan of these lamps.
Customer Rating:
Summary: outstanding value
Comment: This is a great HDTV for the price. Picture quality is outstanding.The only drawback is the sound quality is average and the remote control is poorly designed. I tried to have my Direct TV remote programmed but it was not compatible with this model.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Inexpensive TV
Comment: Only reason I purchased this TV was because it was fairly inexpensive. I put it downstairs for the kids to use. Of course the TV is not as good as a plasma since you need to be directly in from of the DLP projections, but for the kids it is good.
Stick with the LCD and plasma Tv's if you want a family TV.

Editorial Review for Toshiba 42HM66 42-Inch 720p DLP HDTV:
Toshiba 42HM66 incorporates 5th generation DLP technology from Texas Instruments for its best 720p picture yet. New sleek design looks great, yet gives wide a 16: 9 42" HDTV with a smaller footprint than a conventional, analog 36" picture tube set, allowing a fit into many of today's armoires (<40" wide). StableSound reduces unwanted volume fluctuations (during commercials) by keeping volume within set levels, for easier listening. Surround Sound improves audio performance by increasing the sound stage for the viewer. Digital input includes both uncompressed digital video and digital audio in one convenient cable for connections from today's best home theater components. 4-item universal remote will operate many home theater components.
