Ya know, I forgot to ask you guys another important question....are there going to be windows behind your couch/chairs? Some manufacturers put a very reflective protective screen on their sets, whereas others use a matte screen which minimizes reflections. The more polished (i.e. shiny) screen shows a nicer picture at the cost of relfections in the room (Plasmas always seem to use shiny screens, as far as I know). The matte screens tend to come on the rear projection models (DLP, LCOS, LCD, etc)
