720p vs 1080p
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. http://reviews.cnet.com/4520-6449_7-...ml?tag=nl.e497 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. |

720p vs 1080p
I thinlk there are questions about the life expectancy of plasma sets.

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. |

Go for what looks best to you. 1080p is better in pixel definition but if the matrix is of poor quality it may not look as good as 720p. Your eyeballs are the best judge here. Also make sure they feed the same signal into both when comparing. A trick they often play is feed a good signal into what they want to sell, the higher profit lower quality one. Don't fall for this. Make sure they feed them both with the same signal. I prefer cable TV on the same channel when comparing. I almost always prefer LCD today. |

I spent a couple hours in Best Buy with son-in-law as he was shopping for a new HDTV. We compared a lot of LCD to Plasma TV's and I've decided I like LCD better. Bought this one for the wife for Christmas - to use in the bedroom. http://tinyurl.com/2ldpnm She best like it. -- John H |

I think I like the "blacks" better with HDTV, it makes the colors "pop", but when I was in the store, I noticed everyone had their own preferences. My wife won't let a TV in the bedroom. I think that must be because I am such a stud, she doesn't want anything to distract me. |

Do you buy her vacuum cleaners for her birthday? LOL, I purchased something like a vacuum cleaner for her once. You only make that mistake once. On the other hand, if we were in the market for a TV, she would enjoy a nice 50" to go over the fireplace as a Christmas present. It would free up the large cabinet we currently have for our 37" CRT, and give her all new decorating possibilities, so she would enjoy it. |
