Black Friday let down

So i was all excited about buying my new plasma TV today and started my usual compulsive obsessive research and finally came to a conclusion that the panasonic 42" is not a HDTV. talk about trick advertising. The only HDTV set capable of producing 720p signal is 50" plasma. This 42" plasma has only 1024 vertical lines and for so called HDTV (720P) you need 1280. So this set will never show 720 progressively scanned HD picture. I already have a 36" rear projection that downgrades digital channels and displays it very well. I dont need another TV to do the same. Now im gonna start dreaming up the Sony Bravia XBR LCD that actually is a true HDTV or the Panasonic 50" plasma that is too big for my current house but may fit right in with the new house Dipti and I are planning to buy next year.

I never got around to talking about the movies yesterday, new update comming later.

good decision to go for the Sony XBR LCD. That's gonna be my birthday present next year.
