ill tell you in a few days - just bought a 40" version of the same model for the kitchen/family room area. Style played a big part in this one - wifes decision, however I cant see myself being unhappy with it.

Dont know if you still care, but after having it running for a week, im reasonably happy with it. Its in a kitchen/family room area, so its set up in a bright mode, calibrated PQ isnt a priority. It has inbuilt wireless - havnt tried it, as I run ethernet. Having said that, once hooked up, it connected to the various Smart stuff easily enough (cable internet helps). I cant say ill use any of the app's on a regular (or even semi regular) basis, but they seem to work. The browser is clunky and unworkable, but you can pair a blurtooth keyboard and mouse, which might make it better. Most people use their phones/tablets/PC's to browse anyway.
In terms of picture settings, theres everything you could ever ask for, including 10-point WB adjustments. TBH I found myself putting it on "Natural", dropping colour & backlight down a couple of notches and turning down the Motion setting to "Clear" - seems to look nice enough. The TV doesnt ship with a user manual (or even a CD), it kindly tells you to download your own, so I dont really know what the plethora of motion presets actually mean. Of course, you can customise a preset, but I found Clear fine.
Turning the TV on is interesting. It fires up quickly, and loads a channel quickly, but then is reasonably unresponsive for about 20 seconds - not sure why, possibly it could be loading the EPG and booting up the App's. Which leads to the other interesting thing. This TV seems to have 2 EPG's, a standard Samsung one, and a Freeview one. The Freeview one seems to load 99% of the time, but sometimes if you are a bit impatient it'll jump into the Samsung style one - weird.
The 3D side of things. Well the glass are dirt cheap. Super flimsy thin frames with basically a couple of lenses attached, powered by a watch battery. Once you're over that, the quality of the 3D is decent. I have watched a few trailers off the Smart bit of the TV and have been impressed. I have also done a few 2D to 3D plays, and it works quite well. On such a small TV (40" version), I wont bother with 3D much at all though.
The edge-lit LED is reasonably uniform, but its not even close to the LG in the loungeroom for black levels (local dimming backlight), in fact the LG is a better TV in every aspect, including the implentation of streaming media to the TV. The samsung does stream, however the LG does it in a much prettier way.
Its the perfect TV for my situation. It looks good. Its bright. It has a reasonable enough picture whilst watching the news and playing xbox. If I were looking for a model as the main lounge-room type TV, i'd look at a different model and/or brand.
