Thanks for posting this info. This TV is a LCD display which means I think you would benefit from a DVI connection much more than those with CRT-based Rear-Projection TVs. Can someone confirm this for me?

On the DVD I would like the best possible picture, so do I go with "DVI".
I'm not a LCD expert but I'm inclined to answer "yes" to this question. Can you "bump" your DVD player budget up some so you can scope out DVD players with DVI outputs? The Samsung HD931 might be a DVD player worth checking out, along with the Bravo D-1, or Momitsu V880. All of those players are within the $300 price range and upconvert current DVD resolution to 720p or 1080i and have DVI outputs. If you can have a 100% pure digital connection between the DVD player and display, I would definitely recommend going that route.

Peace...
