You might want to check out some of the new LCoS sets coming out. They're supposed to be a lot better than LCD RPTVs and not have the fatigue present in DLP TVs.
What's the DLP fatigue problem? I hadn't heard of this before.
Many people complain about eye fatigue with extended watching on lower end single-chip DLP sets because of the color wheel. It makes a very fast strobe-like effect which some people never notice but REALLY bothers others. Also, some single-chip DLP sets have a "Rainbow" effect around the edges of some images. The high end DLP sets are 3-chip, eliminating rainbow and fatigue, but are VERY VERY expensive at the moment. When those come into the consumer price range, they will be the ones to get.
