I have a Samsung 740T that will sync down to 15kHz PAL/NTSC screens (sometimes), but the picture is far from acceptable, and I was always concerned about possible damage.
It would be interesting to see how the Hitachi handles laced modes. (Though according to prad.de, it's a 6-bit TN panel, which is less than ideal IMHO. The 17" Samsungs listed on BBOA are 8-bit PVA.)
