Yes! I think the ability to watch lower-res video (even 480p) on them and still have a decent picture is what I miss the most.

It would be quite comical if the 300lb figure were correct, having lugged one around before. They hovered around 92lbs, though.

I might be mistaken then. There was also a Trinitron in the room, 30-something inches and required 3 people to pick up. The FW900 certainly felt like 300lbs, for a single person.
