Boy, I do wish Plazma had the legs to out last all the others.

Three big issues I have with any plasma display:

1. Cost. Plasma cost is insanly high above any other HDTV tech for the screen size. Sure, you get a smaller unit, but anymore that gap is closing quickly, and the increase in price isn't worth it.

2. Burn in. Being that I can't stand widescreen stretching of 4:3 content, I'd have issues with burn in quickly on a plasma.

3. Afraid of heights. Most plasmas still do not work well at high altitudes. The problem is painfully obvious in any consumer store here in Colorado. Walk into the plasma section, turn down any noise in the area, and you get a not so plesant buzz. Put one of those units in a house, and you have a buzz that cannot be covered up without raising sound volume of the content to police attracting levels. Why retailers even bother stocking plasma units with this problem here is beyond me, since almost all get returned when the issue starts up after a few days of operation.
