    "Way too many colors"???

    As in - more than the standard 16.7 million colors? How many more colors are there; 16.8 million, 16.9 million?

    Seriously though, can you be a bit more specific in regards to your question?

    ok,
    i haven't counted the colors, but the pictures simply looks bad - it has way too much colors.
    for example, the grass in a football game (in HD) looks awful (you see only dark green, instead of a full range of green), while on the SZ screen its looks great.
