Or in that price range let me know what you think is a good idea...I was real happy with the 42" version of this, now Im on to the larger version which I think will be nice as well...
Suggest me some more things to look at please or things to be choncious of

Watch a football game on a LCD rear projection sometime, you'll see the field looks like it's neon green. high motion will blur and the entire picture will wash on high motion full screen.

No DLP suffers from completely different set personality traits.
All LCD rear projection TVs have "screen door effect". The only way to remove it is by defocusing the lenses in the projection system. Making the picture slightly out of focus on the screen and blending the edges of the LCD pixels. There is no such thing as a LCD RP TV that doesn't have the screen door effect. There are ways of hiding it, but the picture quality suffers greatly. It's just a reality of the technology until they can get the gap between the pixels closer. (technically speaking large panel LCD technology is dead and replaced by LCoS. LCoS does not suffer any of these issues)
p.s.
My intention is not to offend you, but a 42" TV is tiny in the big screen world. The gap between the LCD pixels that causes "screen door effect" would be very small on a 42" screen, noticable but only if your TV was calibrated by a professional. Just a small ammount of defocusing would probably make it almost invisible and at 6-10' it would even be hard for me to pick it out on a 42" screen.

It's b/c of this I'll be going either LCoS or Sammy DLP when I get another 60"+ TV.
