Bought a Samsung DLP ~3 months ago. Love it.

Come check it out when You pick up the 75 gal fish tank 😛

Pros:  
Pic Quality  
Contrast  
Viewing angle  
No babysitting (a la plasma)  
No draggin pixel shift (a la lcd)  
No “black grass” or other commonly mentioned pitfalls

Con:  
~18"s deep  
“Warms Up” for 1 - 5 seconds on power-up  
Not a fan of the default “Game” mode - but this is a model specific item. Xbocks looks better on “movie” or “Standard” mode then “Game”

Overall:  
The wife & I spent 20-40 minutes in each of 6-7 retail places checking out quite a few units, the DLP always won. We’ve had it home for 3 months and prolly used it for 300-400 hours… no real complaints or problems (other then mentioned).
