Just bought this and received it this week from Amazon. Delivery was thorough and they made sure it worked before they would leave.
Picture quality is better than I thought it would be. Better than any plasma I've seen. I knew it would be good with the 240hz but it is really really good! I ran thru it's own calibration on set up so no need to pay Best Buy $300 for that, what a joke that is. And, be sure to buy the 1.3 HDMI cables to ensure a quality signal, I run mine off of a Direct HD DVR. I bought the cables from Amazon supercheap plus a metal cheetah mount for less than $100 for two cables and the mount!
This TV is a steal for the price and the quality. The blacks are super dark, the colors vibrant and picture is clear as a bell. HD the way it is meant to be seen.
Only downside is the lack of bass response from the in cabinet speakers but thats what surround sound systems are for!

I've had my 55LH55 for a few days now and its everything I hoped it'd be. HD tv, PS3 and blue ray are all crisp and extremly responsive. I have not had any issue with the lip-sync issue that others are having. It may be due to the fact that I upgraded my HDMI cables to 1.3(which you should do anyway and for the price on Amazon.com you'd be foolish not to). As for the sound it could be a little better, but for a LCD sound system it's not that bad. To be honest though why would you buy this kind of set and not hook it up to 5.1 or 7.1 surround system.
Bottom line is the LG 55LH55 is the LCD you are looking for if you want a mind blowing picture, without blowing a hole in your pocket.

This is a great buy. I priced the LG 50-Inch 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV at Best buy near me and it was on sale for the same price as this 55 inch 240 hz. At best buy I would have also had taxes and they wanted 179.00 for shipping. The Picture Quality is excellent and my cable provider is broadcasting in 1080i. I can't wait to see it when broadcasting in 1080p. The Delivery company was very professional, they brought it into my home and waited until I inspected everything. I will definitely look on Amazon.com again when ready to make other purchases. Very Happy with everything.

The TV looked great, but quickly we noticed that any sound on the HDMI ports were delayed by about half a second. I contact LG support and they acknowledged that it needed the "lip sync" upgrade and told me someone locally would be in contact within 7-10 business days to schedule a repair. We're now 15 business days after that date and no local contact. I contact LG again, they apologized but said it would be processed within another 10-14 business days. I will post an update if/when this fix is installed and whether it truly fixes the issue. I'm not sure how a company continutes to ship a TV this expensive with a fault that obvious.
My recommendation is to find an alternative at this point due to poor support.

I agree with some of the other reviews, picture on Blu-Ray is amazing. The price point of the television makes it hard to justify an LED right now. This TV is less than half the price of an LED and the quality is on par. Off angle viewing is a bit dim, but for the money, it is not a factor.
I have an LG blu-ray player with a $[..] HDMI cable (thank you Amazon!) and the two complement each other perfectly. The DVD remote works with the TV and vice versa. Only negative is with a TV this big, if your video source isn't perfect you will see it for sure. For example I stream Netflix and the picture can be blurry at times.
Bottom line, with a TV this big, don't even bother watching something unless it is HD quality. Do your self a favor, buy this TV, only use HDMI (cheap ones on Amazon) and set a time limit, the TV is addictive! Enjoy.
