Less that 60 inches with true 1080p.
LCD. I heard Sony Bravia was the best line, but I'm not sure.
Cost excluded.

Sharp Aquos and Sony are supposed to be top of the line in LCD.
You really have to look at them all playing the same thing, and decide for yourself which picture you like best. Also look for built in tuner if you are using an antenna.

I'm not sure Sony is the best, but Sony Bravia X series its really catch your eyes just by looking the design not to mention its beautiful picture.
I'm going to give you little advices the best thing to buy is LCD TV. I know it's not cheap compare to projection TV (DLP, SXRD LCD) but you must know that the proj TV I mention is using a bulb as their light source with a limited lifetime (less than 10000H) and the bulb is not cheap. While the LCD TV backlight can stand for around 60000H.

I would say definitely the Sony SXRD (preferably the new XBR-2 versions). Uniformly rated as the best picture in consumer-level single-unit TVs (meaning not front-projectors that need a separate screen).

DLP, by far.
You have to replace the lamps on DLP and LCD. Granted, that is a bummer.
The difference is that DLP reflects light through colored glass and mirrors - nothing to age, and impossible to burn in. LCD ages, loses its color spectrum, and in some cases even warp. Never mind it can burn in (Playstation or Xbox anyone?) and discolor over time. While it is rare for LCD panels to discolor, if I'm spending a couple thousand dollars, I'm going to get something that will go the distance.
LCD manufacturers are quick to point out that a pixel that goes out on an LCD panel is "normal wear and tear". A certain percentage of the pixels have to be out for Sony to consider the unit "defective", which means you could have 17 pixels out before your Best Buy or Circuit City extended warranty kicks in, because they don't consider pixels out a defect. Good luck contacting Sony to fix your unit over "5 measly pixels in the middle of the screen".
DLP manufacturers will often come to your house and replace the whole board for free under their warranty if even 1 pixel goes out.
Not to mention, DLP mirrors reflect dynamically faster than LCD. Liquid Crystals have a lag time called "Response time", and is measured in milliseconds. DLP mirrors can go much faster and reduce blur in fast motion pictures.

My sister has the 50" Pioneer Elite plasma. It is incredible. Expensive, but so awesome. I watch too much tv, though, to have plasma. Once they're out, they're out. No replacing bulbs. I would have to replace it in about 4 years.
