[dba-Tech] LCD vs Plasma

I'm told that in fast action 240 will make a difference.  But what I was
also told yesterday is that the response time is more important - how fast
the diode can turn on and off.  The TVs I looked at range from 2 to 8 ms.
And 2 is noticeable better than 8.  So I was told.

I got a Sony Bravia KDL XBR 46 in December.  Love it!  Big sale on Amazon -
$1800 + free Sony blue ray disc player.

This has a matte screen - it reflects some of a bright light, by I don't
really see a dim light.

My favorite feature is the on-screen TV Guide!

Also - don't look for a 240Hz - I read a detailed review somewhere and
people can only see the difference in test patterns.  

The Vikings look great every week!

Good Luck,
Dan

In addition, my TV's retail price has dropped by about $500.  I got a good
deal on the TV when I got it for $1500.  The Amazon price is pretty good.
