Dun sa mga owners ng 32 Plasma LG, from the screen posted, the LG's display seems to be missing about an inch on the left and right side.
In the manual there is mention of "You can watch the screen in various picture formats; spectacle, original, 4:3, 16:9, 14:9 and zoom 1/2." Does this help not to loose the picture on the sides? How about cable viewing, can the picture be streched so that the black bars will not show on the sides, are there black bars when watching cable tv? I'm leaning towards purchasing this model so your comments would really help. Thanks.
