I have the Panasonic 47" Widescreen HDTV. I've had it for 3 years and have not had a single problem. There is a forum (panny.tv) that shows you all the tweaks to make it perform to it's top potential. Everyone comments on how good of a picture my set has. I noticed this weekend that Wal-Mart here in Louisville, KY has it for $1100. That's a deal.
