Good point. I have smelled a "plastic odor" coming from these TVs - but I'm unsure whether the smell is actually coming from somewhere on or within the TV itself, or if it's coming from the plastic "shrinkwrap"-like material that is placed on their outer frames for shipment (and is easily peeled off). I've kept this plastic covering on the frames as I'm "testing" them - since I've been unsure about whether or not I'm keeping them.
I don't think the smell is actually bothering me that much - although that can be hard to determine since the e.m.r. issue can overshadow or "mask" it.
I thought Samsung was one of those companies that supposedly kept hazardous substances to a minimum - I've heard something along these lines (for what it's worth).
