Panasonic TH-42PZ700U If you have the means, I recommend picking one up.

This 42" Panasonic plasma features a picture quality far superior to any other flat panel display in the 40-42 inch size range currently on the market. Featuring 1080P resolution and deep black levels that only plasma can provide, the TH-42PZ700U is equally at home watching HD and SD programming, playing games on next generation consoles (Xbox 360, PS3) or watching DVDs (Blu-Ray or HD-DVD highly recommended). Coupled with a quality high definition signal, the picture quality is nothing short of stunning. A sleek stylish case rounds out this very complete package. The only weak spot in the Panasonic's game is the decidedly dated and unattractive remote. Though completely functional, the remote looks like an eyesore on this reviewer's coffee table.
