My Panasonic 42" has an incredible picture, and they use a proprietary cell technology that helps prevent burn-in a LOT more than many other brands. My brother accidentally left a movie paused for an hour and the screen was just fine. Also, some people with other brands (like Pioneer) who play games have complained about HUD burn-in, but I play Halo 3 quite a bit and haven't had one problem.
LCD, Plasma, or DLP?
Plasma

at 50" or less there is no need for 1080P. Just grab a 1080i/720P TV and save the money.

go with plasma.....almost all the cons people talk about with plasma are gone, just applies to older models. LCDs tend to "ghost" things and i hate the fact that the picture changes depending on the angle you view it at. plasma has a much more vibrant picture and no "ghosting" or issues with black.
a nice 1080i or 1080p plasma is what you want. Sony, LG and JVC make some nice ones, so does Panasonic. stay away from anything in Wal Mart. Vizio = shit.

Totally agree. I must've looked at a hundred TVs before picking mine, and plasma always impressed me more than the others. And since it's only 42", I saved a ton of cash getting the 1080i model instead of 1080p.
DLP's especially will change depending on your angle. I didn't want to be limited to sitting in one "sweet spot" the whole time.

That's because the type of person that buys a Vizio TV is your basic Wal Mart shopper...not really savvy about anything except buying cheap ass shit. Not qualified to be giving TV reviews. Give them a shitbox Apex 20" tube TV and they're gonna give it rave reviews too.
Just subscribing. I have been looking at A flat screen purchase for a couple months now. For some reason when shopping around, i though the LCD TV's were better looking than the plazma's.
