    The Good: Relatively inexpensive; iPod dock allows charging and playback of music and video; relatively accurate color.

    The Bad: Produced lighter black levels; relatively poor viewing angle; cannot change aspect ratio with iPod video; no analog audio output.

    The Bottom Line: Although it's not the best iPod-friendly TV we've tested, the Panasonic TC-LX1 provides a convenient, affordable gateway to access video and music based on your iPod or iPhone.
