Figured I'd post cnet's review of the st30. They say picture quality is excellent basically a wash with the gt30, best value in plasma TV's currently, and deep black levels. Pretty good for a low end tv huh Testking?

You still hurt by the fact I passed on the ST30 in favor of an LED based on MY findings?
I've seen the ST30 in action, played around with it, don't care for it. You still haven't answered my question: Have you seen Samsung's latest line of LED TV's IN PERSON yet? If not, then with all due respect, STFU
BTW, this is from that very same review:
"The bad: The chunky ST30 seems dated by today's flat-panel TV design standards. Picture quality flaws include limited brightness--a liability especially in bright rooms--and less-saturated color in its most accurate picture mode. The ST30 has fewer picture controls than the competition, doesn't include 3D glasses, and uses significantly more power than LCD TVs.
Like I said (repeatedly) before, I chose the Samsung LED for its brighter, crisper, more vibrant picture quality.....ESPECIALLY in 3D. I also don't have any of the concerns of burn-in or after-images that plagues Plasma's when connected to a PC for extended periods of time. And, after spending a few days with the TV, I thoroughly enjoy the 240hz trumotion smoothing for games, especially in 3D mode. Games that typically run at 30fps suddenly seem like they're running at over 100fps (I know its just an illusion from interpolated frames, but the liquid smooth feeling is definitely a welcomed effect for every game I tried). Too bad your plasma doesn't have that feature...you'd have to be scrounging a hot deal for the high end VT30 for something remotely close.
