if you are willing to spend the $$ for the Sony you should be considering the Pannsonic VT30 and Samsung D8000 plasmas which are the top 2 plasmas right now, all 3 are excellent.

im a plasma fan but if i had to buy an LCD it would be the Sony HX929

really cant go wrong with those 3

I have the VT30 in my cart on Amazon and getting closer to hitting the submit button.
 
Well, went to Best Buy/Magnolia to look at getting the Panny VT30 today. It was on sale and a little cheaper after tax than Amazon. The sales guy was a real dick and not very helpful so I decided to give my money to Amazon. Anyways, have the VT30, a Yamaha RX-A2010 and a Panny BDT110 Blu-ray player coming. I plan to use the Panny blu-ray player for most movie watching and then 3d gaming on the Xbox and PS3. Super excited!
 
I've had my panny plasma for about 8 months. I didn't break it in or any of that silly stuff. I just used it for what I want and it's been solid. I wish plasma's didn't make so much heat and use so much electricity. That's my only complaints really. They don't make a perfect tv though but that vt30 is as close as you can get.

I've been reading the post over at AVS for the last week. Nothing like reading through 100 pages of posts on about 4 different products 🙂

Anyways, the BB guy just was very short with me, didn't really want to help with selling the product, and basically just stayed at the counter when I told him I also was wanting to by an AV receiver. Sadly, the guys in media were a lot more helpful when I needed them to find a copy of Battlefield 3 for the PC. If it wasn't for needing to use up a gift certificate, I would have just walk out without buying anything.

Why are you covering that beautiful window with that horrible TV? 🙁

And even though this is an old thread, my LG has gotten really bad now.

65"?
 
Well, I've had my P55VT30 since Monday and the tv is awesome. I was skeptical about 3d, but we have watched a few movies, ESPN 3D, a couple shows and played a few games on the PS3 and Xbox. I'm now wishing more content was 3d capable.
