Panasonic 50" plasma @ Costco

just received an email from Costco, they have a 50" Panny HD plasma for $2199....

I might just have to pull the trigger on this one if it turns out to have all of the bells and whistles etc...

No it isn't. It accepts 1080i but does not display 1080i natively

I love the marketing lingo . the actual resolution of the glass is 1366 X 768 (or 720P). 1080 glass is 1920 X 1080 in pixels. Most users will buy a set just becuz it says 1080i.

Yep! 768 native may be ok for displays less than 40" because at normal viewing distances you won't see the difference. If you want a 50" or bigger you should consider 1080 native (50PX60 or 50PX600 models).

Damn marketing guys!
