It's good looking - I'll give it that - the same case as their well regarded A800 model.

The previous 720p model was absolutely plagued by problems, so hopefully they've learned a lot since then.

I couldn't find much with a search other than it hasn't got anything to do with Joe Kane and it's original RRP was 1499 Euros.

What were the problems on it?

[tryingtimes]

If memory serves it was mostly bulb issues, along with other things.
I remember a lot of people saying they would never buy another Samsung product again!
This is the main thread for the product, but it's huge.

It's worth noting that the older 720 model was a joe kane model so many people bought it for it's out-of-the-box colour and greyscale accuracy.

Who knows how much of this has trickled down to the A400. I guess someone is going to have to bite the bullet

Oh snap- I made the same post!

Look up SP-A400B if doing a google on it.

Looks like quite a good PJ from that review and so far all samsung products I have have been some of the best electronics I have ever owned, its got some impressive lumens at 2000 so daytime TV is doable, looks like I'll have to go and arrange a viewing somewhere
