A few weeks ago, someone asked about the difference between 720p and 1080p
HDTV. CNET has an article discussing the differences and gives the authors
recommendations.

He states that this is the final word. Somehow, I just don't think this
will not be the final word. You heard it here first.

What I think is interesting, when my wife and I were looking at the 50"
720 vs 1080, she actually preferred the 720p I preferred the 1080p. We
both preferred the plasma vs LCD.



JamesG,
This was a problem when Plasma original came out. Today, with
improvement, they expect the plasma to last 60,000 hrs., longer than a
CRT TV. I think that means it will be the last TV I buy.
