Thinking of getting a Plasma TV. I currently have a Sony 27in XBR and the Plasmas I have seen come closer to the Sony image than any LCD I have seen.
But I am also aware that Plasma had some issues that maybe LCD did not:
Image Burn In
Longevity / Reliability
Are these still real world issues that I should worry about ?
Also, who makes the best Plasma TV currently ?
Looking in the 40-47in range / 1080p / 120hz refresh rate
Thanks !
