Unless you watch TV in the daytime, in a room full of windows with lots of sunlight coming through or you just enjoy a really bright screen it's a moot point. The brightness thing is way over blown.

The plasmas just have that "look" and punch that you do not get from LCDs unless you are willing to spend significantly more on an LCD with active zone LED lighting and even then I still prefer the plasmas. Plus plasmas handle motion much better and you do not have the off-axis issue of LCDs, which I hate.

Since you like your display so much and it is only a year old you might be better off just keeping it, saving the money and waiting for OLEDs, it should last another 5+ years with no problems.
