HD AND NON HD TELECAST

I Have been shopping for a flat Screen and have been bouncing between the Formats. I really like the Sony Bravia in LCD.. The Sony Wega in RP... But was kind of still leaning towards Plasma when I strolled into a Video store the other day and noticed how poor the Plasmas looked on one wall... I asked why the veil look and he said they were watching a movie. It wasn't HD.. The only plasma that looked good was the Pioneer Elite. I watch a lot of DVDs and non HD telecast... Is there one format that is better than the others in non HD?

Thanks,

Panasonic Plasma EDTV is best for TV and DVD (pixels fit exactly)....it also looks very good (but not the best) on HD.

An HD plasma TV will actually look worse than an EDTV with a regular TV or DVD source....this is because it has to upscale the signal to fit the greater number of pixels on an HD screen. Of course, a proper HD TV with proper number of pixels will look the absolute best with a ful 1080 HD signal ( but beware; many HDTV do not have the full pixels necessary)
