Even as misscalibrated as the demo sets we viewed may have been I think we were seeing a general difference in the two technologies that is mentioned in the excerpt from a review. In the end it's as you say, getting the set home and enjoying the picture IS the bottom line. Compared to what we're watching now that difference should be stunning.
From Home Theater November 2007 by Thomas J. Norton:
Some 1080p LCDs can look a little sharper and "quieter." This was true of the Sharp AQUOS LC-52D64U I just reviewed; look at a plasma screen from up close and you can often see the pixels "dithering," which is not characteristic of LCDs. But from a normal viewing distance there simply doesn't seem to be anything missing in the Pioneer's picture. Its response does fall off a bit at the very highest frequencies (see "Measurements"), but I suspect that most HD program material falls off even faster. I've been living with the PDP-6010FD for two weeks, and I still find its overall sense of detail, on the right program material, breathtaking.
