Now is the time were I think that Plasma will just be done with all together. I mean honestly, LCD out sells Plasma, last I looked 8-1.... I mean the business is horrible and too expensive for a plasma worth buying. I doubt the plasma industry will continue to exist with only two manufacturers. Even though the remaining two are good brands, they might just cut losses and work on the LCD's. It'd be a smarter move by all means. Time will tell I guess. Also, LG didn't make very good plasmas anyways. lol

With all due respect, have you spent any time with an LG or Panny plasma? Seriously, the only reason LCD's are leading 8-1 is due to the burn in scare which is an effective tool for the LCD industry. As far as picture goes, sports, and movies...it's not even close...Plasma blows LCD away.
