About two years ago I purchased a Pioneer Elite 50" Plasma for $6000 (that is what they were going for then). I check now and I see 50" plasmas left and right for $2000. I would love to get a 60" plasma (or LCD) to replace the pioneer 50" and put the 50" in my bedroom at the end of this year. Are prices expected to continue to drop over the next 6-8 months as I will not be back in the US until November? Also, I see LCD sizes are up in the 50" size and when I was looking they were still at about 42". How does the price of LCD compare to plasma.

If you were getting a 60" plasma, which would you recommend and why (btw, I did have the dreaded buzzing from my 50" Pioneer and it was serviced and mostly resolved, but I will never get another plasma that has any chance of inherent louder than normal buzzing)..
