The Bottom Line:
Very nice, relatively inexpensive HD Plasma TV.
I purchased my TV during a day after Thanksgiving sale, so the pricing aspect is a bit subjective.
That aside, I am overall impressed with the television. It is extremely light (less than 100 pounds), can be mounted to the wall, or set up on a stand, and has a TON of hookups! You can hook up your PC, a few video games, a DVD player and cable!
For bright, vivid shows, like sports or nature specials in HD, you can really see the difference from standard television.
My biggest complaint is with dark, or poorly lit movies. To put it bluntly, this TV has some serious problems with the color black. It comes through blotchy and pixelated. If you watch a lot of the older horror movies, this will definitely bug the living daylights out of you!
For gaming, it looks very nice. I have the PS3, Xbox 360 and Wii all running on it. No problems with any of them.
Burn in is a minimal issue with this TV. If you leave a DVD menu up for a while, it will sort of remain on screen when looking at a blank screen, but as soon as you put on something with movement, it clears itself out.
The TV also has a nice burn in repair feature. You select it and the TV glows bright white for a few seconds, clearing any burned in images.
I have experienced no decline in picture quality since I purchased the TV, and it is on 8-12 hrs a day!
I would highly recommend this TV to someone looking for a pretty decent HD Plasma.
