Panasonic TX-L42WT50B

A bit expensive ; So-so black levels ; Trackpad remote isn't great ; Average sound

As plasma TVs' most vocal advocate, with enormous plasma production facilities to back up its beliefs, it's no surprise that Panasonic has been slower than most - well, everyone, really - when it comes to fully embracing LCD as a worthwhile TV technology.

Poor 3D image, reasonable sound

Beautiful looking TV. The H.D. picture quality is first rate. I feel that the sound is good considering, I had contemplated additional speakers for normal viewing, but now I do not feel it is necessary.
