We finally replaced it with an LCD, due to unrelated issues that couldn't be resolved through warranty repair. (Ended up getting a refund on it after almost a year.)

I know, right?!?
I can't believe that Palm is still firing volleys across the bow of Apple! I'm sure the next update to the iPhone will turn the Pixi back to it's former, black self.
Will this petty industry bickering never stop?

Sorry for the double post. I wasn't logged in when I did the first one.

Who would have thought Sears would be the place to go for a good deal on a TV?

The TV itself is AMAZING compared to my previous Hitachi P50S601. The quality of the image is fantastic and the blacks are super deep. I highly agree with Gary's pick/assessment of this TV.

They're inexplicably listed under the "Televisions" category, instead of "Big Video Display Things"

Seriously, nice list.

... and if you are making a "best value" list, then you must calculate (total performance + service)/(total lifetime cost). You will find that Vizio's horrible reliability ratings nock it quite far down the value chart too.

it is always true that undiscerning electronics buyers can find bigger shinier brighter things for cheaper prices than ever before. Sadly, most of these "values" are trashed quicker than ever before because of cheap design and horrid construction.
"looking good" today doesn't mean it's worth 2 nickels tomorrow. a wise shopper looks at upgradeability, compatibility, warranty, service, and so on, and weighs these performance values every bit as much as how bright the thing is in the loud megastore with harsh fluorescent lighting and uninformed sales staff. most people would be surprised when they visit those overpriced a/v-phile stores where tags don't end with .98, to find really good sale prices on gear that lasts more than one holiday season -- as well as service like free trial periods and other benefits.

Anyway, back to our conversation, cost is always a concern. Wise shoppers will also assess their risk and return, which involves the cost of the unit and how much they'll get out of it, for example, features and usability.
As far as no website could ever possibly do that for every shopper out there I completely agree with you. Top-n websites are useless. And this particular site that's referred to in the OP seems like a Panasonic shill to me.
