Unless your using a computer to program all the different HD channels that  your provider is sending you, your never gonna notice anything to the naked eye when watching a HD channel, most HD is sent out in 1020.

Mirrors tend to get a little dusty in time, thats all I have heard about in the DLP type TVs.

I looked into DLP at the time and I remember them being a great choice. I don't remember anything really negative. It was a couple of years ago since I researched them.

What I know is a little archaic!mistake.gif....but, the LCD technology has improved greatly so the the viewing angle has increased to be almost that of plasma...LCD is getting to the point where the color contrast  (black levels) is almost the equal of plasma.  Pricing is almost equivalent now unless you go over 50" and the plasma has the advantage.  Plasma has a better picture, but only in darker room...LCD is better in rooms that a well lit (either artificially or naturally) due to LCD's inherent anti-glare qualities.  Plasma has image burn in or ghosting problems while LCD does not and plasma is an energy hog if things like that concern you.

My bottom line is that most of the research and technological improvements are going into the LCD techonolgy...that said, I view my programs on an old Sony 36" flat screen CRT!

.............and, I still can't see the difference between regular and HD!

Ken is right Plasma has reached about it's peak of technology. LCD likely has many more generations to come. But then who knows what could be next around the corner too.

UPDATE.....Well, I finally broke down and got a new tv.  Got a 46" Panasonic Viera plasma full 1080p.  Also got a Pioneer blue ray to go with it.  I am watching the new Star trek  on blue ray and it is awesome!!  Next, gotta work on a new surround sound system.:D
