Don;t forget that most of our current image problems stem from poor source material. That is why a lot of NTSC looks terrible on bigger screens. If you have seen HD though, you know the future looks bright! DVD's are a differnt story too (though not as amazing as HD).

If you have the money to consider plasma, and a decent sized room (15'X12' is a good minimum), why not look at front projection?
For $7k you could get a LCD front projector and video scaler that would knock your socks off- and give you a real "cinematic experience" for those DVD's.
Once you watch your letterboxed DVD on a 7 ft. wide screen, there is no going back to ANY normal TV, and new products now have enough output (2500 lumens for example) to be brighter than a RPTV (and less effected by ambient light)

Drop me an e-mail if you want to know more of have specific questions about FPTVm and I will let you know all I can.
