Okay, after spending the better half of my day reading this message board, cnet, and looking up prices, I've narrowed my choices down to three plasmas. I've come to the realization that 42" I'm going to get used to way to quickly, and wish I ponied up the cash for something slightly bigger. So here it is:
Samsung 50" HP-S5053
Panasonic 50" TH50P-X600U
Hitachi 55" 55HDT52
Now, all three are pretty nice.. The Panasonic is actually the most expensive, but is also the newest. My question is, Panasonic advertises that it gets "over the air" HD signals.. Do the Samsung and Hitachi not get those? The reason I ask is because I won't have cable at first as I don't watch that much TV.. mainly movies.. But, I'd like my local sports programs to be in HD. Personally, I like the look of the Hitachi and Samsung more than the Panasonic, but it seems like the Panasonic has more HDMI inputs, and other features. Anyway, if you guys could help me out here, I'd really appreciate it!
TIA!
