RE: Picked up a copy of Consumer Reports today....

When I went to get an HDTV, I liked the image quality of RPTVs, but did not like the restricted viewing angles. Even a bit to the side (or up or down) caused a noticable falloff of illumination levels. This was with all of the RPTVs on display. I went with a Panasonic 50" pasma. Even extreme off-axis position picture is still bright and viewable. This is the biggest problem I see with RPTVs, and probably one of the reasons they are loosing out to flat panels (besides being too bulky for the screen size). They also did not have any cost advantage.
