After reading the comments here and checking out the TV for myself at Best Buy, I now have the PT-40LC12 as the centerpiece of my home theater. I'm glad to say that I couldn't be happier. Looks just as good or better than $10,000 plasma screens that I have seen. Of course, it is not a thin panel, but 16 inches thick is not bad at all compared to CRT's and normal Rear-projection.

Now I want to see the Sony Grand Wega 60" LCD rear projection. For $8,000, it's possible you could have a screen that looks like a $30,000 plasma screen! =)

Honestly, for my room, I think the 40" model is perfect, and the picture is just amazing. LCD rear projection is really a cheap way to get plasma quality (and you supposedly don't have to worry about burning in images with the LCD RP screen).
