-what features do i look for?Umm, a nice picture? Seriously, it's nice to have at least two sets of component inputs, especially if you're running DVD and digital cable; autoconvergence would be nice (mine is manual); manually controllable Scan Velocity Modulation (SVM) toggle (adds noise, ghosting, ringing when "on"; PIP or split screen if you enjoy that sort of thing; 3:2 pulldown; and widescreen (16 x 9 aspect ratio rather than the standard 4 x 3).
I bought a Panasonic 47WX49 earlier this year (47" widescreen), had it ISF calibrated, and have been very happy with it. Beautiful, bold, crisp, lifelike colors and an excellent, film-like picture via progressive scan DVD. I think the new model is 47WX52 with the ability to disable SVM and more points of convergence, but don't quote me. I saw an ad for $1699 @ Best Buy and unless you need a bigger screen, you won't do better for the $$$.
The larger Toshibas are reputed to be quite good as well.
Happy hunting.
