i searched hi and low when i replaced my 30" dolby pro tosh for something that would be just as good a picture, believe me when i say i looked at everything that was in the shops. whet did i get? a panasonic plasma. why? coz the picture was streets ahead of the rest of them while watching fast moving stuff like footy, golf and racing etc.etc. the LCD's tended to give me motion sickness and the LED's were just to damned expensive.

i've had mine over a year now and i got image retention once, but its not there anymore. the plasmas of old were notorious for being unreliable and fickle. the new ones have no such problems apart from 1 and that is they burn a lot of watts, mine burns 360watt. where an equivelent LCD would be about 80watt if i remember.

as hindle says up to 32" then LCD after that to 52" then Plasma after that then its Projectors. LED are to new to comment but my mate has just got himself a 50" LED and swears its miles better than the 42" panny plasma he had before it.
