Nice...Easily the most impressive TV I've ever seen in person. I probably wont get it myself as I can't spend 3000+ dollars on something that has no warranty in my country. Canada doesn't sell them and while I could import from USA I just can't take the risk.

So if you buy something from the US, the manufactorer's warranty doesn't count in Canada?

Well for most things this is not a problem but not Mitsubishi TVs... They don't do TVs in Canada and if you decide to import, you're on your own.

That definitely sucks.  What if you paid the $300-$500 many sites are offering for their warranties?  Would they not honor that, either?

@ pezus

Yea, they are great.  The model disolitude linked is actually the older one.  If you shop around you can find the newer one for a few hundred more, but it has all the 3D tech integrated, so all you need is a player and the glasses.

I only know of such waranties what you buy from specific stores. For this TV I'd have to get it and ship it to a warehouse at the border and drive over with a van as  I've not found a company that is willing to ship these to Canada yet. Not sure who would want to ensure that lol.

As far as 3D and these TVs, they are amazing. They actually work on a slightly different method than most normal 3D tvs ,called "120Hz time-sequential wobulated 3D" (aka checkerboard). They work with all HDMI 1.4 3D stuff and are only TVs you can buy that will run 1080p resolution content at 60hz per eye while gaming. All other TVs only support 720p at 60hz or 1080p at 24hz per eye.
