Customer Reviews
Excellent (after a few tweaks) 
2008-08-26
This is an amazing HDTV and the 120 Hz keeps fast moving images clean and smooth. It's mind blowing how bright and clear blu-ray is on this set. Watching BBC's Planet Earth felt like we were standing right there. The only thing you need to do when watching films, however, is to turn OFF the TrueMotion feature. It makes Sports, News, and Documentaries look excellent, but it will make your films look like they were shot on video!
Turning off TrueMotion while watching movies results in high-def perfection.
More than enough HDMI inputs, fast screen refresh rate, deep blacks, easy picture customization, and overall great value for all these features. Very satisfied with this purchase.

Terrific LCD! 2008-06-14
After reading reviews, I recently purchased the 40" Sony XBR4 as it's considered one of the best LCD's on the market. But after 10 days of continuing to adjust and tinker with the settings on the Sony, I concluded the color was just too garish and sensitive. I even had a technician come out to look at the set, and he agreed the color quality on the Sony was inconsistent at best.
Enter the new LG 42LG70 which I purchased after returning the overrated Sony XBR4.
The LG42LG70 has a great picture...very natural colors. The set reproduces vibrant colors, but not in the garish, you need sunglasses to view it, way that the Sony did. In addition, the LG 42LG70 has some terrific settings such as "Fresh Color" which accentuates the green of playing fields when watching sports such as baseball (it does so without oversaturating other colors at the same time).
Furthermore, the LG 42LG70 is a good looking set! Thin, impressive black bezel, etc... I have a 42" Sharp Aquos in my den, but have to admit I like the picture quality better on the brand new LG 42LG70.
I highly recommend this LCD to anyone in the market for a quality television! (Plus, it costs less than the disappointing Sony XBR4!).
