lol, yeah, i just got the tv about 2 weeks ago, the piece of paper is the magic focus information page. It's off now, I was probably just too busy playing with the tv. Upgraded from a 27" flat screen, HUGE difference. I also tried to clean up the cables and the floor up a bit. Unfortunately there isn't much I can do about the cables... kind of on the short side 
.
as far as soul calibur 2 on the xbox, the 720p mode is presented in a 4:3 window. It would be nice if it was widescreen, but it still looks damn good in 720p.

ok.... ive looked through all the home theatre threads and some setups are incredible! Unbelievable with cinema seating and projector screens. Dont get me wrong thats awsme but the seats at cineam's are no way as comfortable as a sofa or bed! How do you get the money for these setups? some must have cost around $20 000 excess! my home theatre feels puny in comparison! i thought mine was pretty nifty at 17 but some peoples! Well ive taken photos of mine but i will post em later when developed!

Nice setup. We have the same TV. How do you like it so far? I've had mine since the end of December and I love it so far.
I've had it for about a month now. Watched the Superbowl in HDTV... awesome
One of the main reasons I got it was for the built in HDTV tuner.
Plus I got a sweet deal at Sears for it.
But I'm really liking it so far, I just need to work on getting it calibrated
.... Have 0 experience doing that stuff...
