The model number of my unit is LC-52D64U. It is a 52"..there is a newer model out now with a higher contrast ratio. You can still get one for around $1500 or less. A 42" or 46" should be considerably cheaper.

Yes all the Sharps use the matte screens or light absorbing screens per the company's description. The light sensors were standard.

The new LED models are due out this fall. I haven't seen a price on the newest series. Which is supposed to have a contrast ratio of 1 million to One! That is better than any plasma on the market. I'm sure they won't be cheap though!

When needed the Sharps can really throw some light if they have to. They can be EXTREMELY bright. In most cases you won't use half of the back light brightness capabilities that Sharps are known for.
