Swanny, IMHO there is no definate answer as to which is better plasma or lcd, it depends on the application. From my experience the very best for movie viewing in darker lit rooms and typically nite time viewing is a plasma tv hands down. Now when it comes to daylight lit rooms for normal daytime viewing I find the lcd will kick the butt of the plasma. So simply put my next basement tv will definately be the Panasonic plasma but for upstairs daytime use and in the house & monty I will stick with a Sony, Samsung or LG lcd/tv. JMHO.
