Mistubishi 57732 & Samsung HL-S5679...DLP Bulb vs. DLP LED

24.182.198.198

Hey folks...i'm back after having done some more research. Copied this query from AVS forum so forgive repetitive nature of some of the statements.
Have pretty much settled on 1080P, although not thouroughly convinced i wouldn't enjoy a nice 40-50" 720P plasma. My budget is $2500.
I found these two sets for about the same price...the 732 is $100 more. I don't know much about LED projection technology but i have seen and researched the pluses and minuses of DLP technology, as used in the mitsu set. The dark corners and darkened screen as seen at 30+ degrees viewing angles is a bit of a turn off to me. I just saw the LED SS HLS unit tonight for the first time. I had my gf with me and being Val.'s Day i had little time to do any true viewing to compare the two, although i have spent some time looking at the Mitsu 732 on a previous occassion. The LED seemed to have a wider viewing angle, though, from what i saw.
From what i have heard, LED projection takes care of some issues that DLP proj has, such as rainbow effect, bulb replacement. I also believe this was a 1st generation model from SSung, which is not always a good thing, and i have also read that it requires a good calibrating out of the box.
I'd like to know what other differences there are between these two technologies AND these two models, specifically.
Any other recommendations within my budget is appreciated, as well.

Also, a BB salesman, who i trusted for whatever reason, said Mitsubishi next line of DLPs will offer laser light projection instead of bulb projection. He said the national sales rep form mitsu told him as much. Any thoughts...
