Yeah if we do this..I am leaning towards a Sharp 37" LCD...I just am trying to edumacate myself on the whole 1080P deal. I buy a TV once every 10-12 years or so...so what I buy I want to last and last and last
Mikey,

A bit late to this thread, but what did you decide?

We have a 32" LCD Sharp Aquos and very happy with it I think that LCD pictures seem to have slightly better clarity than plasma, and from what I have read, plasma burn out rate is worse than that of LCD.

I'm also curious.

plasma blows. stay away.

LCD rocks. the Mitsu is tops in my book, just visually speeking. I can't wait until we get OLED's. That is the future my friends.

I have a flat 16:9 tube until then. it does whatever the lowest HD is 480i ? is that it. It'll do for awhile. until I step into the 1080 arena

HD is 1080i or 780p. 480i is NTSC, 480p is EDTV...

Not late I'm a procrastinator/researcher when it comes to major purchases. ...I am still leaning towards a 720P LCD probably a Sharp 37" So that is good to hear!
