Good TV
We have had our 50HM66 Toshiba for just over two years. The picture is awesome, and we have had no problem at all with it: Until today.
My wife turned the TV on and heard a pop. Yep, the bulb is blown.
They are available on the web for around $100. Luckily, we have the extended warranty from the retailer. They will send someone out to replace the bulb.
Lots of incorrect information in the reviews I have looked through.
$600 for a bulb? Hardly...

Plan on buying bulbs every year
Just like many other posters, we've had problems with the bulbs going out. We replaced the bulb for the first time a year after we purchased the set. Now less than 6 months later the bulb blew again.

Very Pleased
My mother purchased this television over 3 years ago. She's retired so it's running about 6 hours a day. Still using the original bulb. HD programing and BR discs look great. SD programing is ok. While researching this television, I read about users having problems with frequent bulb replacement. These bulbs are a "metal halide" type, which is why they cost $175 to replace. After reading some electronic forums about these bulbs, I found that one reason for the early bulb failure MAY be powering ...
