LCD
Plasma
LED
This is my personal opinion, from what I have experienced.

Plasma - best bang for buck.

LCD's only pro is that it doens't reflect - lights, windows etc. Look at your computer monitor - if you have one. :wink:
The pictures drags and makes a trail if you watch sport or fast pictures - gaming etc - almost unoticable, but fact. Tires the eyes. Only good for computers. :wink:
Think their development slowed down because of LED. Expensive for what you get.

LED still in their baby shoes - too expensive for what you get. Not yet better than plasma.

Think LED will also slow down before it's fully developed - :lol: - 3D screens already developed and previewed in US. :shock: :shock:

Some valid points Low Level. My prediction however is that LED will be the death nail for plasma - for probably 1 reason only - lifespan.

3D is already available on your current displays if you look for Anaglyph movies - even think there is a few copies of Avatar available in anaglyph. Still need those funky glasses though.
