Bought the 50V500 62 days ago at Circuit city. Came home only to find the picture has strong Magenta/pink tones to it. Have unplugged and reset video all to no avail. CC says bring it in and they will send it in for a repair. Hitachi is supposed to call me back as to a replacement. I am furious that I have to have a brand new $3000 tv repaired and that it will take 4-6 weeks. I'm hoping that CC wil replace it. Any one else have a similar experience? Larry
