I have to admit that I never looked at Panasonic unless it was for a plasma. Unless you're getting a good deal on it I'd look at the new 1080p Sammy DLPs or 1080p Sony XBR's....
I'm also not a big fan of rear projection LCDs. Too much artifacting and SDE for my taste (I returned a Sony 60" rear LCD for this reason last year). Make sure you see one in action before buying it. Specs can only tell you so much...

I wish Panasonic would get over 1280x720 and start releasing 1920x1080.....even their pro gear for the field is all 1280x720 even though they now have 1080 cameras....jeez.

But I won't lie, I'm inclined to wait for the LED DLP Sammy's coming in July(?).

But yeah, I think the new Sammy's are due out this summer. If I remember correctly the first DLP with the LED light engine will be the 56".
