Customer Reviews:
Samsung un46b8500 is awesome
The picture on this television is amazing. It was definately worth the money. The picture is bright and crisp. The only weak spots are 1. in extreme motion you can still get some slight lag- even with the 240hz and 2msec response time 2. there is a general lack of detail in the blacks and the remote is not universal. The remote is kind of neat in that it has an ipod like control to shuffle through the controls and has a sensor so that every time you pick it up, it becomes backlit. I love this tv and was definitely the best of what is currently available.
Excellent HDTV
This is my first HDTV. It looks wonderful! I have also been impressed with the SD coming through the TV. I downloaded the manual from Samsung first to review the manual and the connectivity options. There are limited connections, but this should not be a problem if you are using a receiver as the hub of your entertainment center. Right now I have component hooked up for my DVD player and HDMI for satellite. The DLNA allows viewing of pics, video, and listening of music from your computer wirelessly. The enclosed disk does not support Mac, but I downloaded a free program, TVMobili, from the Net, and DLNA seems to work just fine. The thinness and low weight of the TV are both very impressive. Also, the Xbox 360 via HDMI looks just fabulous. Oh, I had no problem with CEVA, the local company contracted to deliver. No issues at all.
A Great TV! 
Overall, the TV is excellent:
Picture Quality: Excellent
Sound Quality: Rear-firing speakers not great but OK.
Remote: Good design
Menu: Easy to use and make adjustments
Installation and Setup: Easy; no problems.
Network wireless adapter: Use ONLY Samsung because of proprietary software; nothing else works. Easy to install.
Widgets: Not worth much but they're fun.
Delivery: No problems with Amazon delivery except 2 days late.
Sloppy transport of HDTV's 
--------- Not giving the TV 1 Star---------
When you buy a TV from Amazon they use a transport company called Pilot. My TV arrived in a yellow non-descript small van. I was outside to watch them unload and I was shocked to see that all the HDTVs in the van were vertical, they were not tied down and most were tipped over. It explicitly says on the box to store and transport these items horizontally. They should be sliding the boxes in and out of the van horizontally through the back doors!(not lifting them in and out through the side doors). I'm glad I wasn't buying the Panasonic that was in the van. They don't even put a blanket or something on the floor of the van. Needless to say, neither Amazon nor Pilot really care about such matters. One look inside the van will tell you this.
Absolutely incredible picture!
I'm not a techie. So, I can't tell you why the picture is so amazing, but you'll feel like you're looking through a window at real life. I just spent way too many hours watching the Winter Olympics, and this set blew me away--and my expectations were ridiculously high. If you've been on the fence, don't waste months like I did. Buy this tv and start enjoying it!
