Sharp LC26DV24U 26-Inch 720p LCD HDTV with Built-in DVD Player

Marketing description is not available.
Customer Review: very nice
This tv with the built in dvd player has a great picture. The only thing is the controls located on the tv are on the top and aren't easy to see which would only be a problem if it's wall mounted. Of course the remote solves that problem so be sure not to lose it!
Customer Review: LONG DELAYS and REMOTE SUX
LONG DELAYS BETW/ CHANNELS: - 2-SECOND DELAY when pressing channel up/down. - 4-SECOND DELAY when entering the channel#. Not sure if this is b/c the remote doesn't have an enter button. REMOTE SUX: - lacks ENTER button - lacks a LAST CHANNEL/RETURN button - sellers should start posting a pic of the remote also! I thought I could live with the DELAYS, but it was intolerable after a while. I ended up buying a refurb'd Vizio for my room and moved this one down to the kitchen, which was ok since I mounted it to the wall and can watch DVD's there now without any clutter of adding a dvd player.


Today sitting on a couch, we can flip through hundreds of T.V. channels, tune the T.V. to suit our requirements and perform a host of other operations without moving an inch. The T.V. remote control has become an indispensable gadget.

The first T.V. remote, called Lazy Bones, was made in 1950 by the Zenith Corporation. It had a wire attached to it, which connected it to a motor inside the T.V. By pressing the buttons on the remote, viewers could move the motor in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction to move up or down channels. But the remote wire caused plenty of accidents, with people constantly tripping over them.

Subsequent developments led to the manufacture of the wireless remote, which used ultrasonic sound, and then the modern T.V. remote, which uses infrared light to send signals to the T.V. The low-frequency infrared light is invisible to the human eye and can only be detected by the T.V. receiver.

The appearance of T.V. remote controls has also undergone many developments. From the bulky awkward boxes of the 50s, remotes evolved into the familiar peanut and the slim rectangular shapes with round or rectangle-shaped buttons. In 2006, remotes have become even more high-tech, with streamlined, easy-to-hold shapes and backlit LCD screens that display exhaustive menus of options. In fact, the new T.V. remote is more like a hand-held computer than a remote control device.

Intelligent T.V. remotes are in vogue today. These remote controls can interconnect appliances like your television and your computer; they even have digital program guides and activity control features that let them automatically switch on the T.V. when you put on the DVD player. With such smart T.V. remote controls, you can wield great power from your couch.
