I am getting a t.v. for christmas and it will most likely be one of those three. Well the first thing I would like to know is basically which is better the S2 or U2? I know the S2 is newer, but they seem like they are almost the same thing. The number one thing I'm looking for is picture quality, and then sound after that, features don't matter much to me. Also which type of t.v. is better plasma or LCD? I will mostly be using the t.v. to play video games and watch blu-ray movies on my PS3,and the occasional t.v. show. It would be great if someone who has one of the three t.v.'s, or has watched it, could say how they like it. I know that Samsung, Sony, and LG t.v.s are probably better, but I can get 40% off panasonics, so it will have to do.
