I like my Pio Elite--I've got the 1410HD. No dead pixels. Great picture quality and depth--best I've seen other than the Fujitsu. The only shortcomings--this isn't necessarily Pio specific--are:
1. A lack of inputs. I resorted to buying a switch, since I've got 1 HDMI source, two DVI sources, and one component source. That lead me into the gates of hell--it turns out you can't just buy a DVI switch, and the existence of HDMI/DVI cables is not an indication the two specs are fungible--even just for video. If you go that route, get an HDMI switch...
2. No easy setting to turn off overscan. Net result is that my mac mini desktop is "bigger" than my screen, and I can't see the menu bars...
3. Its bloody heavy. Not as heavy as my Sony 36" XBR tube was, but the consequences of dropping it are commensurately more severe.
