Thoughts on Plasma, LCD, DLP and which way to go

Yep, I second the JVC recommendation - my buddy just got a 62" JVC (for approx. $2500) and the picture is fantastic. Hard to beat that bang-for-the-buck.

Kennyt,

Did your partner get a 1080p JVC set, or a 720p set? I didn't think the 1080p sets were shipping yet, and didn't think they could be had for only $2400.

I meant to include JVC in my earlier post but forgot to add DILA to LCOS/SXRD as a recommended RP microdisplay technology.

Thanks
Bruce

Also consider getting a set with a built-in HD receiver. Set up an antenna and you will get a lot more HD stations than with cable or satellite.

Does anyone out of curiousity, have any thoughts on the LG line?

For Plasma take a hard look at the 50 inch Panasonic Panel at Visual Apex for 3K.

I personally am looking forward to viewing the new Sony SXRD 50 inch KDS-R50XBR1. True full high resolution HD, no burn in concerns, inputs galore. The general concensus among reviewers thus far seems to indicate that this is the best set out there. $3,500 or so if purchased online.

Available in 60 inch as well. HMMMMMMMMMMMM
