Same here. I made the trip to the electronics store over the weekend
specifically to see the new Aquos. This store had all manner of TVs, LCD
and plasma, from Panasonic to Sony to Pioneer and so on. I don't think I
saw a single plasma that didn't provide a better, brighter, clearer picture
than the new Sharp, plus, despite what it says, the 170 degree viewing
angle is, in my opinion, bunk. There was a very noticeable drop off in
brightness very quickly. Not as bad as on my computer LCD monitor, but bad
enough that I no longer think I'll be dropping the $5+k on it.
