The only thing I have to add is the problem with pixel errors on the LCD screens
In DK there is a limit for how many dead pixel allowed
" I Am A Driving God! "
So, should i count that as a plasma vote?
In my book yes - unless u get lucky and get one with minimum flaws.Originally posted by AndyBG

But if u decide to get a LCD just make shure that it is HD ready
" I Am A Driving God! "
My boss has just bought a Loewe (One of the top brands sold in DK) with a big HD - and she is loving it!
LCD though - but with no dead pixels
" I Am A Driving God! "
They both have their good and their lesser sides.
Plasma is supposed to be crispier and sharper, uses less space but the technology isn't at its full potential and are still very pricy. You also don't have to fear for death pixels.
LCD are nowadays very developed. They're getting better and better, but the picture is of a lesser quality, especially when you go for the bigger ones (has to do with the resolution). Most of the time they're cheaper than plasma tv's, but there's the fear of death pixels.
If I were you, I would go to a store and look at both type of screens within your budget. Choose the one you like the most (resolution-wise, size,...)
I think plasma is the way of the future (especially with HD), but still needs some developement. My LCD monitor (19", not TV) is very good, but it does have it flaws.
Several thing to consider when looking at what to get!
First how big do you want your picture. The biggest LCD that I know of and that is not saying alot is a 45 inch (make and model)Sharp LC-45GD4U this model in particular will give you a full 1080p HD resolution. Then there is Plasma... Panasonic makes a 65 in model TH-65PHD8UK or you could get a plasma wall from NEC but who needs that. I personally have a 50 inch Samsung that is a nice TV it would not have been my first choice but I got it for a major steal so I took it. I personally like NEC myself because they are OEM and make all of there own stuff unlike other brands. More info on that check out this page.
Second are you going to be watching it mainly at night or in low light or will you be watching it in the day with outside lite and such shining in on your tv? If you are going to watch during the day or with lots of light then you want plasma because they are as bright and some brighter than coventional Television sets.
All in all if you want larger than 37inches then go plasma or you will pay and the quality is not as good. LCD can have delays in the picture when watching fast moving scenes. Black level which is an extremly important thing in film is not that great with LCD's... they have a hard time producing black. There is also problems when viewing some LCD's from angles other than straight on the picture becomes dimmer.
Just remember LCD was invented for computer non moving pixel viewing (still images) so if you are going to watch films buy plasma if you are going to look at family pictures on a 37 in tv then go ahead and get the LCD.
The best advice... go sit down and watch the IMAX film Super Speedway in a store and watch it on both and see which picture you like best in the screen size you are looking for.
I hope all of this mumbo jumbo helps you... if not sorry.

I have both in my home and I like plasma a bit more because it's picture seems to be better. And it was cheaper too. No big difference though.
2004 RS6 Avant
I have 2 52inch Pioneer Plasma Elite. Love them.
Definetely plasma!(unless you live higher than 2.500m then it wouldn't work)
Plasma's technology is still much better than lcds..Specially big screens.
Anyway I'd rather contact a real pros

Plasma. Done lots of research; seen the best. EE background. Panasonic professional/commercial line is the best<<Originally posted by AndyBG

Sony makes fine plasmas; have a JV w/ Samsung that Sony had to enter into as they were getting left behind in the mkt and inadequate production capacity for plasmas. But...Sony's a mktg machine (still) in many product lines, although Samsung is certainly no slouch any more! Priced too high for comparable performance. Here's my ranking (objectively speaking; again, remember, this is just my (very researched, price no object) opinion):Originally posted by AndyBG

1. Panasonic
2. Pioneer Elite Pro
3. Samsung/Sony (tie)
thanks.
That is the thing i want to now, what is the best, not cheapest.Originally posted by slammer1

I think LCD isa better choice. bw, LCD do cost more than plasmas
Pioneer I can vouch for, LCD is LESS than Plasma on this side of the pond
