Sorry Haley...forgot to ask about the digital ready part, but he did say that Samsung and Panasonic are the best...fewer repairs.

We paid $1457.00 for our TV 2 years ago. It's going to cost a little over $500 to fix it, IF we decide to fix it. He said that some of the TV's (ours included) need fans in the back to keep them cool otherwise they will over heat one of the computer boards and they will go out. Said it could happen again. He also said it would probably help if we had a fan blowing at the back of the TV and I asked if he was serious and he said "yes."

Sorry I didn't get the digital question answered, but I was so much in shock over how much it will cost to fix this TV that everything else went out of my brain. I told my husband it may be better to toss this one and buy a smaller one for the same amount it would cost to fix this one.

I did call Toshiba and tell them I was really disappointed in their product and asked if they could give me a discount on the computer board (serviceman said some companies will) , but Toshiba said no. I told them where they could go and hung up. I'd like to take the TV and the jerk I talked to out back and blow them both up. I hate it when a company won't stand behind their products.
