Cable companies do this alot and some channels are worst than others, really no fix for this.

I do have web access so in effect any harmony remote would work?

Is it on all inputs/source devices? Is it all the way on the very edge or in from the edge a little? If you change the pic size with Tv remote does the line move or stay? If you enter service mode and look at test patterns do you see it?

so the UV2A IS better at off angle blacks even better! tbh though who really knows how well they will be untill there are units out for sale in retail, untill then your relying on a manufacture promoting the future tech and they will make it look better any way they can to get people hyped over the product before it comes out. any way you look at it though this should be a nice step forward in LCD tech hopefully eliminating the long standing...
