Flat screens?


Folks: I know next to nothing about flat-screen T.V.'s (or what is on T.V., for that matter). What flat-screen T.V. technology currently represents (i) the best picture quality, (ii) the highest reliability, and (iii) the lowest maintenance? Feel free to offer names of brands and what I should expect to pay for one that is approximately 40 inches x 30 inches. It would be used for watching baseball (me) and movies (my wife) in a non-home theater set-up (just straight T.V.) Thanks to all.

Actually the best picture is still a Hi-Def Glass tube unit but the are small, boxy and heavy....then Plasma, then LCD but LCD gets better almost monthly, DLP rear unit projectors are popular for getting big picture on the cheap and can vary in quality fitting in between Plasma and LCD. Then last are Projectors which can be fantastic in a dedicated space where light is not a huge issue to control.....but for all their flaws that huge picture cant be beat for true movie involvment.
As of now I have Glass tube HDTV, small LCD unit and an LCD projector, my dad has 58in Plasma and my brother has a 65in DLP rear Projection unit so I have a pretty good hold on many of each strengths and weakness.
