...which has more crystal clear pic? Ok I first bought the Sony KDL40Ex400 LCD TV 4 weeks ago but I didn't like the matte picture finish because I was so used to my old CRT TV which I have owned for 5 years. So then I decided to buy the Panasonic Plasma Viera TC-P42C2 TV because it has a glass finish to it. Now I am only gonna be using HDMI Dish Network High Definition. I won't be using BlueRay nor will I be using Gaming. From what I have read online and what people are telling me, no one broadcasts in 1080 P anyway. So knowing that I decided to buy the 720 P Plasma rather than then 1080 P and in the store I didn't see much of a difference and maybe there isn't much of a difference. I am not sure. Now I still have both tv's at my house and yesterday I tried to compare both of them by watching Monday Night Football on both tv's. The bad thing is that I can't turn and watch both tv's at the same time on the same channel. So I watch one quarter of the game on the Plasma and another quarter on the Sony TV. I will be honest with you there might be more colors on the Plasma but I feel that it isn't a 100% clear compared to the Sony. Is that true? I felt with the Sony there might have been a little less color but it was very clear. Now I am a color type of person. I love colors and that is why I was in love with my Old crt tv but I also like crystal clear picture with no dots running around in the background and no pixels showing. Given that the Sony was only a 60 Hz refresh rate even though I didn't see a difference on the Sony 120 HZ refresh rate at the store, between the sony and panasonic which one has the more crystal clear picture and knowing that I love both clarity and colors, which one should I keep because I must return one of them. Is it true that the clarity or the clearness on the Plasma is not as good compared to the Sony? Could it be that because the Sony is a 1080 P, the picture is more clear? I give you an example, when the blimp was showing the whole field from above and you look at the numbers on the field and lines, I felt that maybe with the Plasma the lines were a bit wavy as compared to the Sony. I might be wrong, that is why i am not sure but I need to make a decision because I want to keep the best tv with the greatest colors and the clearest picture. I watch a ton of sports but I don't know they say that with Plasma it should be the best for sports. However I care about the picture being crystal clear as well. Colors are important but clearness is equally important. Please help me. I need someone with a lot of experience with these tv's. Thanks
