    I was ready to buy a Panasonic TH50PZ750U but read some magazine reviews that criticized it for not being able to accept 1080p/24 and occasionally having problems with 1080p/60. So then I read about the Sony KDL46XBR4, with its 120MHZ and its ability to take 1080p/24.

    My questions are:

    1. What exactly does this Panasonic limitation mean? Does it mean I'll never be able to play a HD DVD in the 1080p/24 format?

    2. Do the Blu-Ray or HD players put out anything else besides 1080p/24?

    3. What are your opinions on the 2 TVs? Side-by-side, I thought the Sony was sharper around the edges of football player uniforms and score banners. Also thought the Panny colors were a little too harsh. However, the Sony screen looked a little too light at times.

    Help!!!

    You seem to have made up your mind. Do note that sets at stores are rarely adjusted properly.

    Toshiba's HD A3 HD DVD player outputs 720p and 1080i.

    Just as an aside, check out Sony's SXRD TV's. Great picture
