nice to see prices dropping on plasmas across the board. correct me if i'm wrong tho, is the 42" Panasonic a better deal at a similar price, I've heard that Panasonic so the best in the biz behind Pioneer, and def the best in the biz for the price....

I like seeing the plasmas dropping in price...not long ago it seemed like they were out of the price range for most consumers.
