for some decent reviews of most current sets.

Plasma will tend to have the better picture quality, but they do eat electricity more than LCD.
LCD you can get half decent full HD sets for low money now, but for a decent full HD plasma it will cost you a little more. normal HD plasma are pretty cheap though.

LCD do still struggle with rainbow effect and motion blur, as well as black levels compared to plasma. To get a decent LCD that minimises these issues you will have to spend a bit more than average. Pretty much all LCD have a dynamic backlight now which can take some getting used to.

Plasma all the way mate Go for a LG pg6000/6010 I got the 50" for £720
delivered from Dixons online. Can't fault it.

plasma gives much better picture for movies games has a higher colour pallet and they look more natural, blacker blacks etc, i own both and plasma is in a different league running Hi Def material.
And the best thing, most people and shops try to push you to a LCD which means you get a better deal on a plasma.
check this site out. OH and dont bother going for full 1080p Hi Def you wont notice the difference unless your sitting 4 feet away watching a 50" Nothing is broadcast in full 1080p
