Strengths: Amazing beautiful Picture, easy Hook-ups one HDMI on side 3 in back. Classy look. Good Speaker sound
Weaknesses: Would like a Swivel Stand rather than just stationary.
Summary: Purchased this from Buydig when they had a $799 special. I am so happy that I got this one instead of trying to save a couple of hundred dollars on a cheap 32". I've never seen a better picture on TV or Movies on any other flat screen. I don't play games but I imagine the picture on them is also incredible. Anywhere you sit in my 14'x 11'den you see the picture completely clearly. Black's are really black. I would suggest this TV to everyone looking for a reasonably sized 1080 TV. Much better picture than Higher Priced TVs.

Strengths: Picture quality Audio quality Variety and number of inputs
Weaknesses: None that I have noticed thus far
Summary: 2008-07-08 06:54:46 Both the picture and audio quality of this LCD TV are exceptional. The quality of the picture is excellent whether one is viewing a TV station via an antenna at 1080i or viewing a DVD at 1080p. The audio output through the television's speakers is remarkably good. I have not encountered any difficulties at all with this Toshiba TV.

Strengths: Affordable, nice profile, vivid colors, easy-to-use display settings, deep blacks, good sound
Weaknesses: Placement of inputs
Summary: 2008-07-28 12:17:14 This is the second Toshiba LCD I have bought, and I am once again very happy. Picture looks great out of the box. The colors are vivid, crisp, and bright. The blacks are excellent too, not washed out like on some other TVs. Sound is fairly good and the speakers are well hidden.

In 32", to my knowledge, there are only two 1080 TVs out there right now: Sharp Aquos and the Toshiba Regza. The Regza, in my opinion, has better picture, a more premium look (no silver at the bottom like the Aquos), and costs less. This makes it a great buy for me.

There are ample inputs: 4 HDMI, 2 component, composite, Toslink, PC audio, VGA. Computers can be viewed on the TV using either VGA or HDMI. The only downside is that the inputs face the back of the TV instead of "down" so the plugs could go in parallel to the TV instead of perpendicular like they do now. This makes it a bit difficult to wall mount the TV and have enough space to plug in thick HDMI cables that I have run behind the wall. However, it is still doable.

Also, another reviewer said you can't separate out PC audio/video, which is not true. You can place an HDMI/DVI cable in "HDMI 1" input and run a 3.5mm audio cable from your PC to the PC audio input. The TV will couple this audio and video since the HDMI/DVI cable only carries the video signal.

Strengths: 1080p resolution in a smaller package with TONS of inputs. An excellent option for our guest bedroom/computer room. The picture is fantastic once you move to "standard" or "movie" mode.
Weaknesses: Video and audio inputs are locked. I use DVI-to-HDMI for my PC video, and I can't bring the audio in separately.
Summary: I love this TV. It has a great picture for the price, and the size is perfect for the small bedroom/office we put it in. We've got it hooked to a Tivo HD DVR, and the picture is beautiful with the right settings. The inability to draw from separate video and audio inputs keeps me from hearing my PC, but so far I haven't missed it. I think I'll solve this issue with my next PC upgrade, which is right around the corner. Overall, I would highly recommend this TV as an affordable option for small to medium size spaces.
