Excellent!
I was going to say the same thing actually, looks really good!
Turbo'd MX-5 MK4
it really doesn't in the picture, but it is in real life. Its big, but not massively big, my dad has a 60" LG but its in a massive room, 50" is as big as I can go in my living room.

42" for sale? Full HD?
lol, going to my brother for pennies, not Full HD, but a nice TV anyway.
I'm thinking about getting a fiddy, is it worth it upgrading from a 42 though?
which is what you wantNice choice
I am starting to get 'used' to the 32" in my bedroom, which is worrying

Awesome tellies. I have the 800B which brings IFC to the party
Unfortunately I f**ked up and bought the poverty spec 42" which I now think is too small
Best get your wallet out again then lol

Nice telly.
Yeh, thats what I meant. It wasn't a "You have a small tv" jibe! lol..
I have 42" and when I first got it I thought it was massive. No I could quite happily have 50".
Same here. I was actually considering the Pioneer 5090 but I decided it was too big so started looking at 42" and decided on what I have. Now, part of me wishes I'd gone for the Pioneer.
I applied this lesson to my recent PC panel and went for 26 instead of 24. Overkill FTW when it comes to displays. Bigger is always better. Factamundo.

I know what you mean, I'm used to ours already and yet I thought the 40" was enormous when we replaced our old 28" CRT.
Can't wait for Sky + HD now (but I'll have to - three months :dapprove

Nice TV, realistic colours and good black levels I find they suffer from motion lag and Phosphor lag too though, the only plasma I have viewed that doesn't suffer from the latter is the Pioneer Kuro range (which no longer exists as they have withrawn from the high end home AV market).
(My kit list)
Panasonic TH42PZ85B
Arcam AVR280 amp
Quad 11L2 Front speakers (bi-amped and ghost centre)
Quad L-te rear speakers
Atacama Nexus 7 stands
QED SA XT speaker wire
PS3 for Blu-ray and music

I do sometimes notice phosphor trail with my panny, but very very rarely. Certainly no motion problems. Far from it in fact. Mine is one of the smootheest panels I've ever seen for motion. It is the 800B though with IFC so perhaps that helps?
PS. The Kuro does still 'exist' but I guess you'd have to be quite shrewd in balancing up falling prices with availablity.

The motion tends to suffer when a static image and panning shot or a static shot and a moving image occur, especially at higher rates of movement.
Mine has 24fps and IFC also, but I leave IFC off as I find the interpolation doesn't help matters. I do find the 24 fps makes the image smoother though, and action seems to flow more naturally too.
Mine is getting better now its broken in (ran on low settings and avoided static logos for a while)
The 50" and 60" Kuros do stil exist but this 9th generation are the last that Pioneer will be producing / releasing (its a real shame as Pioneers Kuro technology was years ahead of even its closest rival Panasonic).

Sir yes SIR!
My friends have got a 50" Kuro, the quality is stupendous.

They are truly mind blowing when running a good Blu-Ray transfer:evil:, I've never seen black levels quite like the Kuro produces.
I'd still choose a 60" Kuro or commercial Panasonic panel + separate TV tuner tbh
For sure, the green trails have got less and less as mine has aged. I only see them now when playing a very dark video game. Even then, very rarely
I don't personally notice any other issues at all. IFC with 1080p/24 Blu-ray content just looks stupid IMO. I do realise it's all relative though. I often wish I had gone for the Pio 5090. Still, times change. In a year or so when I really feel the need to upgrade, there will probably be 100" OLEDs or something. It's all gravy.
LY, just STFU and do it. The fact that your man bought a HDTV and doesn't seem to care about watching it in HD, makes me want to kick him in his nuts and claim your vagina as my own.

strange, ive got the 46pz85b and ive never noticed phosphor trails or had any motion issues and i play alot of computer so thought it would be at its most apparant?? i read a post over on avforums from another owener saying he had really bad phosphor trails while palying cod4 and strifing left and right, seems perfect on mine tho no green trails:S had mine for a few months now and run it in on ultra low settings for the first 200 odd hours then tuned the setting up a touch, picture is nothing short of stunning now:evil: oh and nice telly mate, would of gone for 50" myself but really did look big in the shop and would of been overkill for my bedroom lol
Not all people can see them, it depends on your retinas sensitivity to them AFAIK.
Audi TT 225 Quattro
i think your looking to hard mate
Not at all, can see it on most movies (high contrast areas) and high FPS games suffer badly too.
A few guys on avforums seem to see them too
I see the trails. It's not imagination. They are there. Rare though. Rarer as the telly gets older.
EDIT: Put is this way. I notice the trails less often than I notice poor blacks, uneven backlights, and comparatively smeared motion every time I visit someone who has an LCD
