It's a 720p. If you're going to get a new tv, you might as well go full boat and get a 1080p (1920x1080 resolution). At least that way, if you ever want to jump on the HD-DVD/BluRay bandwagon, you have something to play it on. Other than that, I haven't really heard much regarding Panny LCD's. Their bread and butter is plasma.

For LCD's, Smokey got it right: Sony, Sharp, JVC. My dad has a Sony Bravia in his living room and Sharp Aquos in his kitchen, both are nice but the Bravia is hands down the best LCD I've seen. That said, I still believe my HDiLA set does a far better job on SD. In HD, everything looks good!
