42" hitachi plasma that gets good consumer and also pretty good av guide reviews. there is a full thread on slickdeals going on right now for all of the gory details about what rez it does and doesn't display due to hitachi's proprietary/weird chip up and downsampling technology. it's advertised as HD1080 supposedly as the equivalent of 1080p but it is not a true 1080p. from what i can gather, it's not a 1080p but nonetheless all of the consumer and pro reviews are positive, and those are mostly from the ppl that paid around $1300-1400 and from the pro review standpoint that this would retail for around $1700 or so, so for $750 i would say this is a deal. one of the pro reviews on slickdeals states that you don't need 1080p for plasmas unless they are 50" or greater cus u probably wouldn't notice the difference. personally, i don't know enough about this topic to state whether this is true or not.
at sears it is $899 and if u use a sears card there is a mail in $150 rebate. i'm debating whether i should jump on this or wait to get the cheapest nice quality 50" lcd panny which goes for double this price currently.
