DrXym - "Still, I wouldn't touch 720p (especially at Pioneer prices) no matter what when there are so many 1080p sets to choose from."
That's really sad to hear. That just goes to show that the marketing speak and useless tech specs on TVs these days really are winning over a market of consumers that don't know any better.
You basically just said that you would rather have a TV with an inferior picture than buy a 720 set with the highest quality picture you can get.
If I had the money, I would buy a 720 KURO over a 1080 anything else any day of the week. But then I actually put more stock in the important specs like contrast, color reproduction, block levels, viewing angle, etc. Ya know, the parameters that actually effect the image quality. Which is why when I was in the market almost 2 years ago, I chose a 50" 720 plasma over a 60" 1080 DLP for the same price, best decision I could have made.
