I looked at 2394572349574 tvs, I came away with 2 conclusions.

1. LCD flat panels are by far the best tvs you can buy
2. 50's tvs are far too small

With that being in mind I bought a 61' inch, rear projection, DLP, LCD slimline that is only 11inches deep. Anything over 50's in a plasma or LCD flat panel the price jumps well above 3k.

I can't see spending 3k or more on a tv that will be half the price next year. So my tv will give me 90% of the picture quality of the LCD flat panel and 99% of the PQ of the plasmas but for half the price and about 11 inches larger. Plus it's only 11 inches deep, so I could hang it if I wanted to. I got a free warranty as well.

However the high end rear protection tvs from Mitsu and Sony rival anything out there. Especially the sony's but it will cost you.

Also my tv viewing angles are nothing like RP of the past, there is no to little effect being at a bad angle. I almost bought the 67' model from costco.
