What is the qualitative difference between the Platinum and Diamond series? I looked through the specs and most of it seemed the same. I would prefer to get a 46" (viewing distance is small) which is not avail on the Diamond, but is on the Platinum, but may be convinced to get the 55" if the Diamond series is much better.Also, how do either of these compare with the Pioneer elite?
Thanks,

Byas - When I made the comparison of Mitsubishi HDTV to Pioneer Elite I found the off-center viewing(either to the side or horizontally) better with the Pioneer. You might check this with the sets you are most interested in........Haoleguy
and I thought the Mitsubishi looked much more smooth, natural, and crisper. I know these words are kind of vague, but I lliked the Mitsubishi better (all were playing HD PBS).
I would recommend that you try the site below and navigate to HDTV. There you can look at the specs for each TV. I could give you the short version, but half the fun is knowing you did the research and made the right decision 4 you. I pesonally own the WT-46805 and my only regret is they announced the release of the 46807 after I made my purchase. Otherwise, I believe this is one of most solid buys in HDTV monitors available for under $4000.http://www.mitsubishielectric-usa.com/index.html
I would recommend more careful consideration on size. The most commonly heard regret of the RPT owner is, "I should have gotten the next largest size".I'd been considering either the 55" or 65" Mitsubishi. It took me a long time to decide - carefully measuring and thinking of how each set would fit into the decor of the room and considering the viewing distance. When my 65" set was delivered, it looked HUGE! Especially since it was replacing a 46" 4:3 set. I wondered whether or not I made the right decision considering my viewing distance was 12 feet. After a few months, I didn't even notice the hulking black "monstrosity" anymore. Now the picture almost looks too small and I wish I had enough money for the 73" set. Alas, the price to upgrade from 65" to 73" is around $5000 so I'll have to settle.
Given the relatively minimal difference in price ($500 in the same line) between the 46" and 55" sets, either get the larger one now or make sure you buy from a store that allows you to return the 46" set for full credit toward an upgrade later.
Trust me on this one. (Of course, I'm single...)
