A lot of LCDs are too slow to keep up with video games, and burn in is pretty much a non-issue for Plasmas these days unless you really abuse it. I haven't seen the Westinghouse, but I'd guess the contrast is far better on the plasma (and that is more important to the overall viewing experience, IMO). You probably can't differentiate the difference in those resolutions for that size of tv unless you are sitting closer than 6 feet or so to the TV.
Isn't one advantage of LCD vs. Plasma power consumption (ie LCD uses a lot less power than a Plasma)? Or have they improved upon that now?
