You can still get around this by using X10 modules. I have a Toshiba 56HD. it is designed to turn on if it is plugged into a switched outlet. get an X10 appliance module and an X10 infrared receiver ( i think it's under 50 bucks for both). plug your Toshiba into the module and now you can discrete on/off. the ir unit operates several devices, this can really help get your home automation up and running with pronto

Be aware that Toshiba RPTVs (at least, my 65" set) forget some (but mot all) of the setup parameters after power outage. Specifically, the width reverts to Wide1, which is kinda stupid, becasue you need Wide2 to watch
regular TV on the 9:16 screen. (This was done by the same Toshiba engineers that neglected to provide discrete codes in the first place).
This means that you have to program ON as a long macro that switches the TV ON, then selects the correct Wide position. Since my Toshiba set is also very slow, I had to allow 0.8-1 Sec delays between commands.
