At least you aren't out any money right? Just the time and energy and stress?
Haven't bought a new TV since last year, but add me to the list that has 2 Panasonic Plasmas, a 42 and 50 inch. Nothing special, didn't even get 1080P (bigger price premium a couple of years ago, and I still don't have any 1080p inputs). But I love the TV's, great image and color. No issues with burn in. I was so happy with my first, I didn't hesitate to buy another last year. Would buy another again, but until my Sharp LCD craps out I can't justify it (not very happy with the image on that one).
BTW, keep in mind if you find a TV you like at Best Buy or something, buy it on a credit card that gives extended warranty. It doubles the warranty up to a year, so there is your 2 year warranty. If your credit card doesn't do that, get one that does--lots of no fee versions out there.
Good luck.

Nope, not out any money. With that said, the excitement is completely gone. I don't even want to go through the motions again, but I need a TV in the basement. My other is occupied 90% of the time and usually unavailable to play on.
My credit score is decimated because of an unpaid cell phone bill/termination fee after I became temporarily disabled, therefor no credit cards are available to me. However, I am now open to purchasing a set from somewhere other than Costco.
I am reading cnet and researching which is plain best for my money. Keep in mind this TV will be used for 80% gaming that will include extended sessions with HUDs and menu images. I have no HD inputs except my Xbox. Maybe one day I can afford to get HD programming.
