[D65**] Is the browser worth the extra money?

Hi ate123,

I own a 46D7000 and it's my honest opinion that Samsung's attempt at a web browser is to serve no other purpose than to allow Samsung to list "With web browser!" on the box. It's so terrible it's almost funny. Do not under any circumstances let this "feature" be the deciding factor on spending more money. It's horribly slow, navigation is as clunky as you can imagine, text input is painful and any attempt to load a page with an embedded video will result in a few minutes of messing around in "cursor mode" followed most likely by a complete lockup and a reboot of the TV.

For actual TV viewing, the set is awesome, when I see HD content at friends' houses I realise just how good it is. But trying to add a web browser was just too ambitious on Samsung's part, the current hardware clearly isn't capable.

Totally agree...
Its really slow and navigation is really horrible. I own a d6530 and it's really slow and it's not of my internet connection.

I have UE37D6500 and the browser always crashes when I see pages with flash content.
