Very bright beautiful picture. I read the last review on overstock but still bought it. You aren't supposed to get 'right-up-to' any large screen TV. You will see some pixels if you do. The 1080 would help...but why spend the extra money? The 720p looks the same as the 1080p from 6 feet away (I tried them out in a local store charging retail). LCDs are getting almost as good at Plasmas as far as producing 'real' black colors. Plasma still produces the best 'black' for the money and brighter colors. Burn-in is not a factor anymore with plasma because it uses a 'screen' saver technology that 'clears' the screen from burn-in.The plasma picture produces better blacks than any LCD I've owned, the controls are extremely simple and the TV setup is SOOO simple.Excellent 'entry level' value in the plasma market. OH, Turn the enhanced bass 'on' in the Audio...the little speakers are a little low on bass unless you turn on the enhanced bass.If I went larger than 42 inches...hmmm...yeah, at 50inches I would get the 1080p but honestly...you aren't supposed to be putting your face against the screen....LOL...but if I when as big as 50"...I'd spend extra for the 1080p resolution...but since I bought 42"...I'm happy with 720p;)And I've read that this one tends toward the 'red' spectrum...I've always kinda like a little more red in pictures as apposed to green or blue...it warms up the picture..you can remove it using color controls..

I expected a better picture. I have just watched TV on a tube for years and heard plasmas are great, but maybe I need the 1080 as well. I don't know enough about electronics to really know if the 1080 would help with the picture but up close it's a little spotty. It's great from a distance and it serves it's purpose for me. I am thinking about getting my dad the same one with the 1080. I love the flat screen and the size is perfect!
