Just paid $1499.00 del in suburban Detroit for the d52w20 RCA 52" HD Monitor. Good deal, or not worth the hassles of the Thompson Junk? The picture is outstanding, but already have problems with set turning itself off and changing aspect ratios intermitantly. Seller trying to get me to have 5 day old set repaired. Told him PU the set and drop off another new one. Anyone aware of the same problems / root cause, e.g IC driver failure. The fact this set has dvi, the features and 52" screen has me in heaven. I just fear a service nightmare from cheap electronics

Lotsa issues with RCAs, the turning off and flipping ratios has been noted before. Great price, however. The sets are great when they work.
Suggest you take your query to RP forum at avsforum.com, hometheaterforum.com or hometheaterspot.com, where they have a special RCA forum.
You'll get more, and faster answers, at those sites, from calibrators and other RCA owners.
