TV - help me decide!

Well, after a lot of looking, my wife and I have decided to take the plunge and buy our first big screen. We've narrowed it down to the following 3 models:

Panasonic 53" PT53x54
Toshiba 51" 51H84
Toshiba 57" 57H84

The 57" Toshiba seems to have the same specs as the 51", and is only $200 more, but I don't know if it's worth it. Anyone have one of these? I'll be using Comcast HDTV. The room it'll be going in is about 20'x25'. Ambient light is not a problem as I can make the room completely dark. The only issue is one of the couches in the room is at an angle to where the TV will go. Any feedback would be appreciated!

Thanks!
Tom
 
I've got the panasonic 53" PT53WX54 TV and I love it. My Comcast HD looks very good on it.
 
This is going to need a poll. And if you take night time cough medicine after eating garlic-y food, you'll have some kah-rayzie dreams.
 
Thanks KLin! A friend of mine who is a big home audio/video nut swears by Panasonic so she steered me in that direction.

I forgot to mention we're also looking at a 51" Sony KP51WS520, but I've never been a big fan of the brand. Everything Sony I've ever had seems to break way too soon. I'm hoping to make a decision today or tomorrow if I can make it to the stores. HH Gregg has a sale thru tomorrow where they're offering $150 off on the TVs in that price range. But Best Buy also has a deal with a free 40 hour TiVo on those TVs. Decisions...decisions!! 🙂
