Thanks, Tom. I thought I had narrowed my search down to the Panasonic commercial 50" display. It doesn't have speakers nor a HD receiver built in. I don't necessarily need those items as i have a decent surround system and satellite. The built-in HD receivers are only good for those with cable.
The problem: no one knows when the next shipment of those will be coming into the US.
So then I expanded my price range a little bit. Then the Pioneer I was considering is in short supply as well. I can't afford the Elite series, but really enjoyed my previous Pioneer HDtv.
I cringed at the money spent on the last one, but we never had a single problem with it. I've researched quite a few companies' products. I'm not going to settle as the sticker shock will have long faded before the tv is replaced again. I can't afford exactly what I would like, but that's nothing new!

Thanks, Tony.
The Panny is not available right now- out of stock everywhere. I shouldn't need a wall mount kit either. I am flush-mounting it in the wall. I have to find out if the monitor can safely rest on itself. The sets are about 95lbs.

Finally getting an alignment on my car...so I can drive again! Can't wait to check out the new tires...
Although I'm kinda worried about how they're going to work in the cold... So I dunno if I'm really going to test them...

If I do go with the Pioneer, I'm going to want to buy from an authorized dealer for warranty purposes. The lowest so far from such a dealer is $4475 shipped(beyondplasma.com) for the 5060HD. Add $289 for a total of 4 yrs of warranty. Looks like I'm going to need a wall mount for support the weight of the monitor. That's about $150.

TepEvan will sometimes go back 5-8 pages and start getting caught up. He quotes some really old discussion material. That's "tepping." The completed task of that is :tep'd:
