Long time since i bought my flatscreen (nearly 3 years ago) - i was under the assumption at the time that plasma was on it's way out, so LCD was the way to go back then. turns out Things have changed...
Now I'm helping the inlaws pimp out their house - ironicly, recommendations on TV's these days have been coming in for plasma.
Looking at a 50-55inch, budget hasn't been set, but i'd say sensibly anything under 3k. A lot of 50inch units at 1800-2k when their LED/LCD counterparts go at a notably higher pricetag. Is plasma still old tech that retail will sell at a lowwer price to clear their stock, or is it cheaper to produce?
Sub-topic (if you can be bothered) Anyone care to shed light, or offer the CURRENT pro's and cons of the technology? Apologies: i know it's an old topic thats been rehashed a hundred times on GZ alone, but i thought best to get some 2011 perspective.
Thanks
