i watch DVD from a Denon DVD5000 output through the component RCA jacks and let the 42" Panasonic do the line doubling and rescaling.the picture is absolutely stunning, and i've not seen the diagonal saw problems, motion artifacts, smearing or pixelation problems others have described. not all plasmas are alike, and you certainly can't go by price. Panasonic has done alot of work on these technical issues and it shows in their sets.
i have seen them occasionally with the satellite feed, and had considered a video processor from Faroudja or Runco, but was told by the tech at Overture that it wouldn't help a bad broadcast signal.
garbage in comes out as really big, stinky garbage...not much you can do.
I agree with Rich: the retailers are clueless about showing what the palsmas can do. best thing to do is try and see one in a home.
