I don't think plasma displays are going anywhere anytime soon. They're starting to regain favoritism in the consumer market for the reasons you list above. They are also very price competitive with LCDs, especially for the larger 50"+ sizes and produce overall better color range and a more cinematic picture with better abilities to use different frame rates due to the high pixel cycle rates (over 600Hz) on the newer models.
Plasmas have also got a lot lighter over over years too. A 50" no longer weighs 135lbs.![]()
No question they produce a superior image. I was truly disappointed when Pioneer discontinued their Kuro line. What a fabulous display!
