    put it this way:
    lcd – good for everyday viewing and gaming
    plasma – good for fast action movies and sports

    i would advice you to buy an lcd tv. it lasts much longer and also very suitable in all conditions. whereas a plasma screen will be good for night time viewing. the problem with plasma is that it has a shorter life and is more fragile

    They say that clever people will wait for another 12 months.

    In japan they are selling the latest long life HD plasmas.

    Will be here next year ?

    I love my new LCD. The plasma is going out soon I heard and the new Laser T>V> is coming in at the first of the year. Will be expensive but think about a laser light show. Will be so great. But as for now, I say get the LCD. I have the Sharp Aquos Liquid Crystal and it is awsome. Blessings.

    Plasma Pros:
    Good plasmas have better contrast (range of blacks and whites)
    Wider Viewer Angle
    Better at displaying fast motion

    LCD Pros:
    LCDs are generally brighter
    May have less glare
    No chance for image burn in
    Lower Electric Bill

    If you are going to have a lot of natural light in the room with the HDTV, go for LCD (generally are brighter and have less glare).

    The lifetime of plasma is generally not a big problem. Most of them are rated for 60,000 hours of use until the image is half as bright as when it was new. That’s more than 5 years of constant use.
