or can you wait a bit longer?
I would wait till after the dismal holiday sales, and you will be able to get that 1080p 50" you are lusting after for maybe a little bit more than the 720p/1080i 42" you were considering.
I have been through plasma/lcd/and back to plasma.....LCD is just horrible to my eyes ( my 2cents), for the price you cannot beat the shadow detail and blacks that a plasma provides. I am not a plasma fanboy. I tried to be objective when I bought the last LCD home, but the wife kept complaining on dark scenes about the lack of shadows and detail,, well you get the picture. I sold it and got my self a nice 50" Panny S1 for ~$750 out the door @ sears about 4 months ago.
If you shop around and like to haggle, you can get some killer deals. Do not be afraid to ask the salesman is that the best they can do on the price.
Now like Jon posted below about the 65" going for the ridiculous prices they are going for now, I am gonna wait and get one to replace the 50" I have....

good luck , have fun

edit.. while surfing I found this deal on a 60" 1080p LG... not too shabby for the price....
