I have a commercial Panny and love it. Only 42" ED but that was what I could stomach at the time. Wish I now had at least 720p... That being said, it's still a great set. Can't go wrong w/ any of the Panny line. I've seen some Samsungs and those should be fine too. If you were going to have choose between the 2, I'd go Panny.

Pioneer's also got a great line up. Got my father set up w/ his Pioneer Pro FHD1 1080p. Wow, now that's a TV.
