Thanks for the info about altitude & plasma sets - the noise problem is what I was thinking about - and using the set at high altitude, not how it reacts to being shipped by jet. :-) I live in Colorado so the altitude question is important to me. It is good to know that the plasma screen makers are making improvements. Here is a link to some info about high altitude and plasma screens:

Have the problems with plasma and high altitude been fixed as yet? Just curious. One of the reasons I didn't go for a plasma screen - besides the price - was that they didn't do well with high altitude. This was about a year ago, so I am sure things have changed by now.

I don't think that the high altitude/noise thing was a myth, but I am glad that manufacturers have been able to correct the problem. Now if only they would lower the price of plasma TVs a bit, I might be able to afford one, and get rid of my *@#$* CRT rear projection set. :-)
