Was TV reporter 30+ years, so I know how to spell HDTV. That's about the end of my tech exp., but asked local TV station chief engineer because we are in market for HDTV.
LCD is now a bit of old tech. Plasma has some problems with "burn-in" If picture or picture segments (such as the network "bug" in lower right of screen) remain on too long, they can create ghosted images.
Best picture we saw was Sony's answer to DLP. Some new set of initials. Incredible.
Remember, with 16 - 9 HDTV you need larger screen to get same diagonal as the older 4 - 3 width to height ratio NTSC (older) sets.
Regulatory tech standards are well set. Prices will be down markedly after Super Bowl.

Best picture we saw was Sony's answer to DLP. Some new set of initials. Incredible. Hey, I heard about that. I mentioned that in post #15. I would like to know more about that. I am wondering if this will be unique to Sony or if it is a big enough advancement that other makers will adopt it as a standard.
Who out there knows what we are talking about? It is supposed to be another leap forward in image quality technology.

Sony's answer to DLP is called SXRD. It is a form of LCD, using reflectivity and projection rather than translucency. The quality is stunning!
