32" widescreen HDTV (16:9 aspect ratio) * Touch of Color high-gloss "rose black" finish * built-in digital (ATSC) and analog (NTSC) tuners for over-the-air TV broadcasts (antenna required) * built-in QAM cable TV tuner receives unscrambled programs without a set-top box (cable service required) * Ultra Clear LCD panel (1920 x 1080 pixels)
After ordering and receiving this product I was a little disappointed at the lack of 120hz and some other info that amazon gave that was false.
I thought about returning it and going with the LN32A550, but I decided against it and kept the 650.
This T.V. has expectational picture quality on HD channels, but the regular SD look a little grainy, but what T.V. isn't like that?
Xbox 360 via HDMI looks amazing, just wish I could have had that 120hz.
I also plug my Dell XPS M1330 laptop in via HDMI and surf the internet in full HD glory :)
Great T.V. even if I had my hopes up for more with the advertising Amazon did.
Would recommend. :)

Samsung LN19A450 19-Inch 720p LCD HDTV, Black
10,000:1 Dynamic contrast ratio / 3 HDMI-high definition inputs / 1440 x 900 Res for 720p or 1080i Display / ATSC and NTSC TV Tuners / Widescreen
Technical Details
Once again I am very pleased with the delivery provided by Amazon! My eighty year old mother needed a new tv after her very old tube tv gave up the ghost last week. Since she is a shut-in, wants to keep things simple and doesn't have a lot of space, we decided to stick with the 19 inch, which was the same size as the tube. Thankfully, I was able to find the size she wanted and based on the reviews for the Samsung, placed my order on Wednesday and lo and behold, had it by Friday afternoon. The set up was so fast and easy and Mom is just delighted with the picture and audio. I would definitely recommend this television especially if all you want to do is plug it in the wall, plug in your cable wire, turn it on and enjoy. Oh yes, also the price was just what I could live with.

I've had this set for a little over a week, and I'm delighted with it so far. This is the first HDTV I've owned, and in preparation for buying it I did a lot of research into the different technologies available. My principle considerations were: A) A maximum size of 40", as I only have a small viewing distance (and a wife who didn't want a 2-ton altar of gleaming black plastic in her living room) B) A set that was going to look great for movies and video games, and C) price - not more than $1,000. The other major concern was having a fragile thing like this shipped, as I really didn't want to have to return it (at my cost) if there was a problem. I'm happy to say my whole experience with this model has been excellent.
In terms of the set design, it's pretty sleek and minimal. It does have a glossy black bevel (I would have preferred matte) but overall it looks very nice and simple. There is a side panel with the third of 3 HDMI connections, and the only composite jacks, all of which are hidden from the front.
