RE: LCD or DLP
Unfortunately each brand has their own scale to rate there contrast ratio so you can only compare contrast ratio within each brand. I personally own a 50" Panasonic plasma and absolutely love it. Plasma typically have better overall colors and are best for motion. Burn in is almost a thing of the past anymore with plasma's. DLP are your best bang for the dollar but don't have a great maintenence rating. They have problems with there light engines going out which are roughly $700 for the part and $70 and hour to replace. My opinion is go with an LCD over DLP any day of the week. The new Samsung 550 model is a great buy but the 650 and 750 models with the motion enhancement are flat out amazing tv's.
