I'm actually quite surprised too because I've read/heard so many conflicting things about LG tvs. Since Pioneer got out of the tv making business Panasonic is supposed to be using the same tech that was in the highly touted Kuros. Panny did take a hit with the black rising fiasco with last year's plasmas but I've always likes Panny. I think once they start to fully grasp and implement the Kuro tech (2011, 2012) that they will be hard to beat in terms of all around picture quality for the price. Still and all though flat panels are getting nicer and nicer, lucky us.

If I were to buy a plasma, it would probably be a Panasonic for some of the reasons you mentioned.  But let not forget that marketshare =/= quality.  And let's not fo get that Pioneer got out of the plasma business NOT because they made bad plasma televisions but it was the ignorance of the masses.  Not criticizing, just stating fact.

Hey for the main TV in the living room, I'm a plasma guy all day, best PQ IMO. I"m all too aware of the ignorance of the masses regarding this topic as well.

I've had my SONY SXRD rear projection for 2.5 years and loving it.  I don't see myself buying a new televisions soon, but for a comparable size i'd probably go with a plasma if I were to buy one today.
