Toshiba REGZA 40XV645U 40-Inch 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV, Black Review
I bought this tv last week and so far have really been satisfied. I had a toshiba for 11 years before this one, and never had a problem with it, so while I didn't buy this tv solely because it was a Toshiba, but it certainly was a benefit.
Here's the scoop on the tv as far as I can tell.
Pros: The tv is 120Hz and is the most affordable lcd tv this size with that type of Hz. Here's why that's important. If you like to watch sports or play video games, the lower the number is in Hz the slower the processer is in transferring the movement on the screen. But the higher the HZ the faster it will go. 60Hz is available and is less expensive, but if you can afford the 120Hz you should get it, and with this toshiba you can.
Another pro is the ease in set-up. You literally plug it in, turn it on, answer a few easy questions, and you're done.
It also looks cool, the toshiba light up on the front has absolutly no value to the picture, but it looks way cool.
The Cons:
The sound is the biggest liability to the TV. If you plan to use a sound system to compliment the tv then this is not an issue, but if you plan to use the installed speakers in the TV, you will notice that the lower tones are hard for Toshiba(It distorts them, a little). This is why I gave the tv 4 instead of 5 stars.
The remote isn't as flashy as the samsung, but it is functional and has a pretty cool glow in the dark feature.
In short,, if you are on a budget but you really want a good lcd tv at least 40 inches then this is a GREAT buy. If money is no object then you should probably look at the Samsung led tv's(they are amazing, but cost 3 times as much money)

Toshiba REGZA 40XV645U 40-Inch 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV, Black Overview
The XV645 series combines the REGZA Engine (PixelPure 5G & Resolution+) with ClearFrame 120Hz for superior picture quality, and adds the bottom Deep Lagoon design for an appearance that also stands out from the pack. ClearFrame 120Hz, doubles the video frames from 60 per second to 120 per second to reduce any motion blur that could be caused by fast action video. By using advanced motion vector frame interpolation, it improves picture clarity without affecting picture brightness or adding flicker. For those that prefer a more film-like picture, there is also a 5:5 Pull-Down option available. Resolution+, some video content is in high definition (HD), but some is still in standard Definition (SD). However, REGZA virtually levels the content playing field with Resolution+. Resolution+ is super resolution technology that upconverts and enhances 480i, 480p, and even 720p content to create a sharper, more detailed picture. With REGZA and Resolution+ all of your standard DVDs, SD TV channels, camcorder videos, and even SD video games will feel like HD. AutoView, a TV picture must be bright enough for high contrast viewing during the day, but not so bright that it causes eye strain at night. To achieve this, REGZA offers AutoView. This system combines an ambient room light sensor and advanced algorithms that monitor the incoming video signal. AutoView can automatically control the TV picture settings to produce the ideal picture in any room lighting condition. Bottom Deep Lagoon Design, inspired by nature and reminiscent of sand disappearing below the surface of calm shores, the Deep Lagoon design adds a unique feeling of character and depth to flat panel TV.
