sorry to hijack but i just cannot find a place to discuss tv

i am no gamer but need to buy a tv for normal viewing

my plan is to get plasma/lcd in couple of years so whatever i am buying is for about 2-3 years

I limited myself to 2 choice

a 34 inch Panasonic- at about RM2600- no HD ready, 100 h progressive scan
or
a 29 inch Sony, the one mentioned here- KV DA 29M61- which i believe have better specs, slightly cheaper at 2500...

Is the 5 inch worth sacrificing? Is the Sony picture really more superior?


My normal usage- football, cartoon, HBOs, DVDs...

sorry guys for hijacking the topic!
