Answer 2

There's too many repeated questions on this topic. Below is a Cut n Paste of what I have said and have been selected 3 or 4 times as Best Answer. I just wish to let more people know whether a LCD suits them better or a plasma. =)

To make it as short as possible, I have been doing research on Plasma and LCD over the year. the only advantage the lcd has over plasma is the screen-burn immunity. however, new generations of plasma has already imrpoved on this aspect. Therefore u can almost say that lcd now has NO advantage over plasma[maybe there's one, plasma color fades over time. however, the process is REALLY VERY VERY slow]... even for the price. Since this year, the price of lcd has been dropping alot, but still for a same resolution and screen size plasma n lcd, the lcd will be much more expensive. Advantages of plasma over lcd: Contrast Ratio, grey scaling(black levels), much lesser motion artifacts and much more cheaper. If u wish to know more about them and HDTVs, u can purchase a "What Video" magazine, it's simply an amazing mag with over 25 years of tv reviews! If u wan totally future-proof LCD/plasma, Panasonic PV60 series is your choice, it support 1080p and is definitly one of the best plasma brand out there besides Pioneer(another plasma leading brand). Please take note that brands that produces great LCD doesn't mean they produce great plasma, Sony and Toshiba are 2 examples[Their plasma are really disappointing]. Brands that produce great plasma like Hitachi n Pioneer too, can't produce good quality LCDs. Panasonic is the only exception. Both Panasonic's LCDs and Plasma are always in the top league among so many brands. However, Pioneer plasma is still very slightly better than Panasonic's[I choose Panasonic over Pioneer as I like Panasonic Design and much cheaper price] and Sony's Bravia is also slightly better than Panasonic's LCD[However Panasonic new 60 series LCD do provide a SD card slot for MPEG4 recording directly into the tv!]. DO NOT listen to what the saleman recommend, they only promote those TV sets with more comission for them to u. Buy a decent HDTV mag n start reading! =) I will only consider to have a LCD TV if i want a small screen for my room, i'm using Panasonic 42PV500 in my living room now.

Back to your question, How's Sony Bravia. It's definitely a very good choice. But if u are those who often record tv programmes and wish to save money on a DVD recorder. Panasonic TX60 is your choice as it has a built-in recorder for recording and play back using SD card. Choose your TV wisely =)
