From just looking at units in the stores, and at the CES, I tend to like DLP
for the look.
At the distance I wioll be viewing it, I will still be able to see the
matrix of pixels on
the display. DLP tends to not show the matrix at all. No you are wondering
why I
want a set that big. My wife has vision issues, so she needs the big screen
to tead
the menus and such. Unfortunately, they have very expensive lamps ($300-$500
US).
The TV it would replace is a 42" tube and it is on most of the day, so it
would cost
more in lamp replacement than it cost to buy it.

On a brighter note, At CES TI was showing DLP projectors with LEDs as a
light source.
The picture looked pretty good, but it wasn't side by side with anything to
compare it to.
That is the technology that I might wait for. In the mean time I'll get by
with the big tube.
