I'm shopping for a 58" plasma. Can't afford the Pioneer so I'm told that Panasonic and Samsung make great sets. Salesman at Bestbuy states that the Panasonic is a better TV and that the Samsung has a 60 Hz refresh which will allow for motion blur like I currently get on my older model LCD sets. Is this true? Can anyone speak from experience?

I'm am also in the same boat as you are, and am currently reviewing my options, and hoping to see some good deals over the next couple of weeks.































First, the refresh rate is not an issue at all when it comes to plasmas. It's only a consideration in LCD's. So disregard that misinformation from BB.































From what I've been reading, Panasonic has very good black levels and better glass quality (i.e. less reflection). What you'll need to consider is the room / angles that you'll be watching the TV from.































I am of course waiting for a good deal, and if the price is right I'll go for either brand. I have also heard that the best deals for high-end TV's came about 3 weeks before x'mas last year.































Good luck!
