"This seems to be one of the best televisions of 2007 (when ignoring price). Has anyone found a better option in either the LCD or Plasma space?"

Thanks for the info. I'm not currently in the market for a new plasma or LCD, but I want to stay on top of the topic for future reference/as a contributor to the site. I would *love* to replace my HDTV CRT with either of those two models. Thanks for your contributions; it sounds like you know quite a bit on the subject!

Hey Andrew, I did some work adding more information on the Samsung LN-T5265F LCD you added. (It's on the homepage right now) Do you have any more information? It's difficult to find anything. The AVS owners forum was good, except it's tough to sift through all that info. Do you own this LCD?
