Some complaints from reviews that I've seen seem to be all cleared up for me. Google TV hasn't had any issues so far and is quick to get used to after having Roku TV for several years. The complaints about upcoverting seem to be true. But one thing that not too many people mention is that there is an auto mode selector where the TV figures out what is the best picture mode for your lighting and the current signal from whatever broadcast or streaming source. I've learned to use that and just tinker with the color and backlight brightness of the modes that it selects because it is usually spot on. Before doing that I had the same complaint about some content not being upconverted too great. With that pretty much every thing that I watch looks beautiful. There's not a whole lot to really think about. If you see this TV with a good deal just get it.

Damnit...they still won't ship it lol! I've been waiting for this to go on sale and have a couple BB GCs I would love to use.

I ultimately got rid of mine and went with a Sony A80J (that was replaced by Sony for A80K) for about $700.

But to just talk about the U8H more, I really liked it at first but the posterization was insane on mine. You can see the images on my review on Best Buy. (Lightning) This was not something that could be fixed by software. It also has abysmal macro blocking in dark scenes of lower quality, so just be aware of that as well. Lastly it has fairly mediocre motion handling and shimmering with certain patterns in movement. If that doesn't bother you, or your panel doesn't exhibit these issues, then it will be worthwhile.
I do not believe the 65in and larger have the posterization issues like many of the 55in do.
oh and it does not actually give you true 4k while in 120hz mode with games. It halves the vertical resolution as the SOC cannot handle it.
