The size of the tv is determined by how far away from the tv you will sit.
A 42" set will require that you sit eight feet away. Consumer should advise on the proper distance.
I've had a plasma tv for years, it is viewable from all angles and is crystal clear. And as Bill stated earlier refresh rate is important to clarity, especially for motion...plasma sets refresh rate s are around 600mhz as opposed to the 120 or 240 refresh rate of LED/LCD TVs. So Gracie, just to throw something out there....what about 3D?
