Looking to buy a new flat screen. I want to stay 55" or bigger. So far, I've been unable to decide between a plasma or LCD. I have been holding out, hanging on to my rear projection for too long. I've read so many reviews lately that my head is starting to hurt

What does the majority on here feel is the best picture, and reliability. I am not a videophile, so I don't necessarily need a $6k TV to be happy. Opinions and experiences welcomed.
