RPTVs: Mitsubishi VS. Panasonic

[amnesiac]

ACES! Yet another RPTV thread by yours truly.

I have the choice of these two now:

Mitsubishi WT-42311 (42" tabletop) for $999
Panasonic PT-47WX53 (47" standalone) for $1250

I may be able to get a lower price on the Panny.

I know Mitsu's have had a long history of reliability, but Panasonic is apparently making good products in their RPTV line.

Picture quality of both is excellent. Mitsu does NOT have a DVI port as far as I know.

Thoughts?

WTH is the Poll amnesiac?

No poll because bumbling lurkers will come in and put up arbitrary votes without actually contributing to the thread. If someone has a preference or good reason why I should pick one or the other, I want to know about it and I want to know why.
