I live in NYC and plan to purchase online at hopefully in the not so distant furure. There are a few authorized online sellers of plasma screens with excellent reputations. For a ton of info on the subject, check out the plasma forum at avsforum.com.
As was stated above, Fujitsu will NOT honor their generous 3 year warranty on online purchases. However, I've never heard this being an issue with Panasonic, Pioneer, Samasung and others.
A very safe dealer for example, is Dell.com, specially when they run their 15% off deals and free shipping. Their customer service isn't great but they authorized dealers for Panny, Pioneer plus others & have a 30 day return policy (refund or exchange).
